Solution 1

crystal report does not support table,tr,td tags
tr (causes only a paragraph break; does not preserve column structure of a table)

you can see details for supported tags with description. in this link...

it's not supported by crystal report

so, I think you should make a sql-table from HTML and then
use crosstab report to display it in a table form

for convert html table to sql table
visit
http://www.simple-talk.com/sql/learn-sql-server/how-to-import-data-from-html-pages/
see.. "Using a datatable" - second topic. you will get some hints

Welcome! :)
Glad to help you! :)

here it is...same topic for html->pdf
http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/192046/how-i-can-convert-html-to-pdf-by-net-code

In crystal report it's not possible to set html-table format
In my suggested sql you can create subreport or crosstab, as per my knowledge it will be easiest way :)

hope it help you!
