How to create report?

[shers]

Hi,

I have developed a windows database application in vb.net 2008 express and sql express 2008. Is there a way to create reports in the application?

Thanks

Crystal report

Add a new crystal report file by Add > New Item > Crystal Report

Open Crystal report > Set DataSource > Drag and drop desired columns into report.


Create a form in vb.net
drag and drop crystal report viewer and set report source of crystal report viewer as Crystal Report 1 ie, Created Crystal report name

I'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition. I did not see Crystal Report in New Item.

Thanks

Crystal Reports Basic not an option

I am using VS2008 Pro and the Crystal Reports doesn't show up in the Add New Item when I'm working with a Windows App. It does show up when creating a Web App. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I tried reinstalling but that didn't change anything.
