The CrystalReportPartsViewer Control

The CrystalReportPartsViewer control is used in the .NET Framework to bind to and display a Crystal report as a series of linked parts. This greatly reduces the area required to display report information as is ideal for displaying small amounts of report information on a portal Web page.

Note

To modify a report to function as a series of linked parts and to bind it to a CrystalReportPartsViewer control, see Tutorial: Displaying Report Parts with the CrystalReportPartsViewer Control.

In Crystal Reports for Visual Studio, the CrystalReportPartsViewer control has been enhanced to support the Web Parts framework, a portal framework introduced with ASP.NET version 2.0.

The Web Parts framework enables developers to encapsulate controls on the page within configurable Web Parts.
