Hello everyone! Please, please put on light to my problem. I am using vb 2008 express edition and I am already almost half-way to the finish. When I already decided to create a report for my tables from an Access 2007 database, I found out that there are no Report Wizards or Crystal Report Wizards in my IDE. Is there no other way to solve my problem out? Do I have to restart my project all over again? I am currently downloading Crystal Report because I read from a forum that there should be a third party application to supplement this incompleteness of vb 2008. But even after downloading the file, I do not know how to start creating a report through my IDE. Please, please help me with this. I am running out of time for my Thesis. I would whole-heartedly appreciate anyone who could shed on hope to me. Thanks...

Hi,
Crystal Reports is not compatible with Visual Studio Express Editions.
There are numerous 3rd party reporting tools available
Crystal Reports: http://www.businessobjects.com/products/crystal/default.asp?intcmp=hp_products_crystal
ActiveReports: www.datadynamics.com
XTraReports: http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/WinForms/XtraReports/
