Need a registered copy of Crystal Reports yes...and no, not through a menu
per say. I mean, you create a report, then call it with the code and
walla, you can either print it directly, or allow the user to review the
information without printing because a "printing" interface is embedded in
the Crystal Report OCX file. You get to see exactly what is printed, I
could whip out a small sample if you wish...
