Crystal Reports C#

[JimD]

Does anyone have any feedback on the version of crystal reports that
comes with VS 2005?

I have always just rolled my own reports. However, one app I am working
on has a little more complexity to the reports than normal and needs to
be able to export to Excel. PDF would be a plus too. I can do both,
though it gets tedious to write that export code. I could just dump out
CSV, however I would rather keep the formating.

Can the reports run within a web app? If so, are they standards
compliant? I am not interested in IE-only junk. I tried the report
server stuff that comes with SQL Server 2005 and it was junk. It didn't
work in Firefox on Linux/win or Mac with FF/Safari.

Thanks for any help,

Jim

I don't know whether Crystal.NET works in WebForms, but I can attest
that it does do export to PDF and to Excel with no problems.
