Importing Crystal Reports

In This Topic

The C1ReportDesigner application can also import Crystal report definition files (.rpt files).

To import reports from a Crystal report definition file:

Click the Application button and select Import from the menu.

A dialog box prompts you for the name of the file you want to import.

Select a Crystal report definition file (RPT) and the Designer will convert the report into the C1.C1Report.C1Report format.

The import process handles most elements of the source reports, with a few exceptions for elements that are not exposed by the Crystal object model or not supported by C1.C1Report.C1Report. The exceptions include image fields, charts, and cross-tab fields.
