Call a report that was in a different form

[Former Member]

What is the correct way to call a report that was in a different form?

This is my current code

Dim frmImprimeComprobante As New AdvancedReports.frm_RptRecepMerc

frmImprimeComprobante.ShowDialog()

frmImprimeComprobante.CrystalReportViewer1.SelectionFormula = "{tbRecepcionEnc.fdRecepcion} =" & 26 & "" & _

" and {tbRecepcionEnc.fdCodigoProveedor} =" & 4 & "" & _

" and {tbRecepcionEnc.fdCodigoMovimiento} =" & 1 & ""

frmImprimeComprobante.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = "
AdvancedReports\AdvancedReports\RptRecepMerc.rpt"

frmImprimeComprobante.CrystalReportViewer1.RefreshReport()

But displays the following error:

Error 1 'AdvancedReports.frm_RptRecepMerc.Private Dim WithEvents CrystalReportViewer1 As CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer' is not accessible in this context because it is 'Private'.

Hi,

Basically we call the report in the form where the viewer control is placed, however in your case we can pass the report document object from a global variable or a session (in case of web application.

More over how does it behave when you try using this statement:

CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = "
AdvancedReports\AdvancedReports\RptRecepMerc.rpt"

Does it help?
