Crystal Report design at runtime C #

Question

Is there a way to edit an existing crystal report at runtime?

For example: I want to insert objects into a table. What I want the topic name to be called a column in the crystal report. Than I want to insert labels of these topics into another table.

Answer 1

The short answer is yes. You can use the Crystal SDK to create a Crystal Document object and from their access to fields and data connection parameters. Keep in mind that changing the fields directly in the report is risky , as this means that updating the report can damage your code. You might be better off presenting your changed data as a result of a stored procedure or view, and then point to a report.

SAP Srytal Sdk Samples provide great examples of report changes.
