Not sure why you'd need and add-in for this? You can use selection formulas to control the data.

2. If there is any help available please pass it which basically explains steps that are involved to create a plug-in and deploy.

Places to start:

[Crystal Reports .NET SDK Samples|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples]

(Search for "Add-in" on the above page)

Hi,

I want to export the content in to Excel sheet to achieve this i'm thinking to write a plug-in which will pull data from report and export.

1. Is there any other best way to achieve this? I know there is a default option but i dont want to use that as i want to customize it.

2. Of there is any example code to export the content into Excel sheet the way we want please give it.

3. Or even it would be good if there is any sample to read complete data as rows and columns format.

Thanks in advance ...

Hi,

I want to write Plug-ins for Crystal Report XI R2, if this is not possible with this version what is the alternate mechanism to do plug-in kind of things in this version.

As per the release notes

http://partner.businessobjects.com/documents/Newsletter/cr_xi2_qa_partners.pdf

"they are using a 3rd party partner solution that uses the new custom menu add-ins feature"

which means we have an option for add-ins so please let me know how to achieve this? If any specific service pack need to be used and steps that I've to follow.

Thanks

Siva

As far as I know, Add-ins were introduced publicly in CR 2008 (12.x) and I sent you information on those in my post from Oct 5, 2009. It may be that partner releases had this functionality before CR 12.x. If you are a partner, you should have dedicate support and I recommend you reach out there.
