 Crystal
Reports® is an intuitive reporting solution that helps you create
flexible, feature-rich, and dependable reports – tightly integrating
them into both thick and thin client applications. Crystal Reports
provides you with:
• Powerful report designer: Report authors benefit from
a complete set of layout and design controls to create highly formatted,
interactive, and professional looking reports. Use the standalone
designer or the design tool integrated within Visual Studio without
leaving the development environment.
• Flexible application development: Developers can
leverage cross-platform support for both Java and .NET. HTML is
generated directly by Crystal Reports, allowing developers to focus on
application business logic, rather than tedious, time-intensive hand
coding. Separation of application development and report design tasks
allow developers to focus on application development, while the report
authors can focus on report design.
• Report management and delivery: Reports are previewed
in HTML and published to the web for easy and controlled sharing –
allowing for better business decisions at all levels of the
organisation. Reports can also be exported and repurposed in the most
popular formats like PDF, Excel, and RTF. IT can centralise the
management of operational reporting while distributing the report
authoring function to the lines of business.

solution that helps you design, explore, visualise, and deliver reports

itself – reducing dependency on IT and developer resources.

Reports 2008:
• Empower end users to explore reports interactively
• Create compelling reports with stunning visualisations
• Develop powerful data mashups
• Save valuable report design time

designer
What's New in Crystal Reports 2008:
In an effort to improve the Crystal Reports experience, some changes
to certain components of Crystal Reports 2008 have been made:
- Reports samples and sample database: To reduce download time,
report samples and the Xtreme sample database are now accessed
through separate downloads on the Start Page of Crystal Reports
2008.
- .NET developer SDK documentation, merge modules, and MSI files:
.NET developer documentation, merge modules, and MSI files are now
accessed through separate downloads on the Start Page of Crystal
Reports 2008.
- Report developer component (RDC): The RDC is unsupported in
Crystal Reports 2008. Developers wishing to use Crystal Reports in a
COM application should use Crystal Reports XI Release 2. The ActiveX
viewer remains a fully supported component of Crystal Reports 2008.
- Advanced DHTML viewers: The Advanced DHTML viewers have been
removed from Crystal Reports 2008. The improvements to the DHTML
viewers make these additional viewers unnecessary.
- Java reporting component (JRC) availability and Java SDK
documentation: Java developers now receive the JRC and Java SDK
documentation through the free Crystal Reports for Eclipse download.
This product will be updated on a separate schedule from Crystal
Reports. Visit the start page in Crystal Reports 2008 for more
information on updates to Crystal Reports for Eclipse.
