Jeff McWherter wrote an article on ASPAlliance called Six Quick Crystal Reports Design Tips.
When I first read through them I laughed at two in particular.
One was how to get check boxes to appear on a report. I struggled with this one a few years ago and now use it frequently. Why didn't I just ask Jeff back then? (Oh yea, I didn't know him)
The other is using a DRAFT watermark. I have been doing this for a long time, however I am using a jpeg and because of the way CR handles embedded images, the JPEG (even one that is 24kb) adds about 100 - 300 KB to the DLL. I spent a LOT of time trying to deal with this. Jeff shows how to just use text. TEXT! I never even thought of this! I will definitely be changing those reports.
The other four were all new to me!
