Export the out put of Crystal report into text file

[Former Member]

Is it possible to export the out put of Crystal report into text file?

According to the Crystal Reports .NET SDK (see 2nd link below), it looks like you should use the ExportOptions class. But set the ExportFormatType to ExportFormatType.Text.

Sample snippit from the CR .NET SDK...

Private Sub ExportToDisk(ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument, ByVal fileName As String)

Dim myExportOpts As New ExportOptions

Dim diskOpts As DiskFileDestinationOptions

diskOpts = ExportOptions.CreateDiskFileDestinationOu2026

myExportOpts.ExportFormatType = _

ExportFormatType.RichText

myExportOpts.ExportDestinationType = _

ExportDestinationType.DiskFile

diskOpts.DiskFileName = fileName

myExportOpts.ExportDestinationOptions = diskOpts

myReportDocument.Export(myExportOpts)

End Sub
