Hi all.

I am working in crystal reports and as all of us know, it has so many output formats such as: Excel, pdf, rpt, etc.

I want to control the format.

I mean that I want to execute the report as pdf for example.
How is this done?

Please help.

1. You should be able to get how to do from it, it should be enough
2. There are lots of online free converters (VB to C#)

XML

ExportOptions CrExportOptions;
cryRpt = new ReportDocument();
string strReportPath = &quot;CrystalReport2.rpt&quot;;
cryRpt.Load(Server.MapPath(strReportPath));

DiskFileDestinationOptions CrDiskFileDestinationOptions = new DiskFileDestinationOptions();
PdfRtfWordFormatOptions CrFormatTypeOptions = new PdfRtfWordFormatOptions();
CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = &quot;D:\\informations.pdf&quot;;
CrExportOptions = cryRpt.ExportOptions;
{
    CrExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
    CrExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat;
    CrExportOptions.DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions;
    CrExportOptions.FormatOptions = CrFormatTypeOptions;
}
cryRpt.Export();

        cryRpt = new ReportDocument();
        string strReportPath = "CrystalReport2.rpt";
        cryRpt.Load(Server.MapPath(strReportPath));
        DiskFileDestinationOptions CrDiskFileDestinationOptions = new DiskFileDestinationOptions();
        ExcelFormatOptions CrFormatTypeOptions = new ExcelFormatOptions();
        CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = "D:\\informations.xls";
        CrExportOptions = cryRpt.ExportOptions;
        CrExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
        CrExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Excel;
        CrExportOptions.DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions;
        CrExportOptions.FormatOptions = CrFormatTypeOptions;
        cryRpt.Export();
