Question : Crystal Reports 10 -- Professional Full

We used to develop Crystal Reports in the VS.NET 2005 IDE, but now that we have 2010 (without Crystal Reports), we are forced to move to the Full version (10.0.0.533).  In the IDE version, there was an option to map a "push" report to an .xsd schema file for the field definitions.  With CR 10 Full, we can't seem to find the magic connection that will allow us to map to a schema document.  We are looking for a non-.NET Crystal Reports expert to help us determine the "best" (i.e. easiest) way to define fields for the data that will be pushed to the report.

Answer : Crystal Reports 10 -- Professional Full

I saw that, Mike, but we can't use a beta version in production, so we are forced to wait for the official release, which isn't targeted until some time in November 2010.  In the mean time, we have an immediate need, and we talked about changing to "pull" method (painful!!), or using field definition files (old school!!).  I haven't used the Full version for CR 10, so I don't know what it is capable of.   I thought that I would put it out there, to see if some way could be found that I couldn't think of or research.  The trouble with research is that it doesn't distinguish between the .NET and non-.NET versions, so it is difficult to find a solution.
