Topic: Embedding a word document within a report Posted: 21 Apr 2011 at 12:50am
Hi
I am quite new to Crystal, it is the reporting tool for our database. I would like to know if it is possible to embed a word document in a report. People applying to work at our organisation apply through our database and upload a covering letter as a word (or equivalent) document. TO enable us to print applications for shortlisting we have to have a crystal report to bring those details through. What I would like is to add the uploaded covering letter to the report we would print rather than have to go through each persons record in the database and have to print them that way.

How would you know which document to add? If your data contains a path to the document, you can add an OLE object to your report and dynamically set which file the object loads based on the data.
