Crystal reports for visual studio express 2012 for web ?

[former_member620540]

Hi,

I was hoping to use Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web IDE edition to create a webpage that handles processing crystal reports from a Coldfusion website.

I have installed the files from http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-35074

I have created a new webform, however there is no Crystal reports node on the Designer\Tools menu.

Is it possible to do this using the Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web IDE?

Visual Studio Express does not support integration of 3rd party utilities. You will have to upgrade to a higher SKU (Pro, etc.) of VS2012.

Hi,

Thanks for your assitance. Its great that these forums have questions answered. I asked a number of questions in the Eclipse forum but never received any replies.

( Hence why I am looking into the .net version ).

Hello Scott

Yeah, I know about the Eclipse forum. It's one of those "management" things...

One of my goals for this year is to train up on Java and CR for Eclipse - if I get a clear statement of direction from management about this product. Right now, CR for E looks like the ugly duckling of the family. I probably should not have said the above, but oh well...

Happy coding,
