Hello. For a project I am working on we need the option of creating a report (based on a DataGridView's data).

I am using Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition and apparently you cannot directly use Crystal Reports with Express editions, can someone clarify that for me?

And, if I cannot use C/R directly then how can I use it?

Tutorials I have found on the web have all been created at runtime, whereas our reports will not always be created, hence why they have to be created through an event (button click, etc).

So in short,

1) If I cannot use C/R inside Visual C# 2005 Express Edition how can I use it? Where can I download Crystal Reports?

2) How do I export data inside a DataGridView into a report during runtime?

 

Thanks in advance
