Hello everybody! I have a SQL2000 with 25CAL. For reporting, I currently use Crystal Reports 9, and I need to create the same reports every week. I'd rather asked the end-use to refresh the report but the company does not want to buy multiple Crystal Reports CAL.The company has no funds for a major reporting solution.I have read that RS 2000 is free, provided I already have the licences.Please help me to know:1. Is RS 2000 is free, provided I already have the licences.If yes, how can I get it (MSDN?)2. Will I be able to use Visual Studio Express edition (the free one) to create the reports?If not, is there any cost-effective alternative.Are there any links/helps/guides on this?Crystal Repors is a very good tool but I do not want to run the same reports every single week. I'd rather have the end-users run it.Thank you for all the suggestions and comments!  |
