I posted this in Beginner section but seem to have no answer...so,

I need to add a button to PRINT A REPORT.
The REPORT has preset texts and blanks to be filled up by VARIABLES's VALUES.
The REPORT is expected to be able to be saved in formats such as .doc or .pdf.


HOW TO DO THIS?

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Use Crystal Reports in VB6 and .NET

You can load a report writing a few lines of code, on the click event of a button.
: The REPORT has preset texts and blanks to be filled up by
: VARIABLES's VALUES.
You can pass values parameters and parameterized queries to the report. Can filter the data, and fill the blanks with values.
: The REPORT is expected to be able to be saved in formats such as
: .doc or .pdf.
Crystal can export rtf, pdf, html, etc. But I believe only from Crystal 10.0 and up can export to native Word and Excel. Even when RTF is recognized from Word, and is an acceptable option from most users.
