Hi, Can we integrate crystal reports with sharepoint ? If yes is it good to integrate Crystal Reports with MOSS OR does it have some of its own mechanism for reporting or any reporting tool ?

The default way of showing reports in MOSS is using SQL Reporting Service. For those reports microsoft has provided some nice webparts. If you don't want to change to SQL Reporting Services then there are some solutions available online : http://jsiegmund.wordpress.com/2007/08/20/crystal-reports-web-part-for-moss-2007/ http://configlabs.com/itfootprint/2007/11/integrate-crystal-reports-with-moss/

Hi Zia, Based on my experience, the Crystal Report Web Part is shipped with SPS 2003. If you’re using Office SharePoint Server 2007 or Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, you may need some custom code to finish this job. For example: http://jsiegmund.wordpress.com/2007/08/20/crystal-reports-web-part-for-moss-2007/; http://jsiegmund.wordpress.com/2007/09/16/. Thanks & Regards, Peng Lei
