How to generate reports?

How can I generate reports in visual basic 6.0 from sql server 2000?

  • I read somewhere that I can generate reports with crystal report but I don't have it in my add-ins and I don't want to buy it.if you suggest me a web site that teaches me how to generate reports It will be helpful!

  • Answer:

    Ooh, it would be so much easier if you could use VB.NET 2.0. Why? Because there is a drag and drop control that links directly to SQL Server Reporting Services (either SQL 2000 or 2005) Then your app would be ready in 5 minutes. If not...then you could use a web control and just point it at the 'report manager' part of SQL Server Reporting Services. If not...then you are probably best off doing something with the Crystal Reports control. Seriously though, Reporting Services is a free product and I would advise you to use it if at all possible. It will pay for itself in no time.
