  ANother small issue in converting to FlexReport. I need to silently and without user interaction export a report to PDF and store it n a specific location. I accomplish it very easily with C1Report using this code:

          c1Rpt.RenderToFile(CurOrder.DocPath & "\Crating Report-" & m_CrateID & " - " & Trim(OrderNo) & ".pdf", C1.C1Report.FileFormatEnum.PDF)
  

  There is no RenderToFile method on the C1FlexReport object and I can’t seem to figure out how to get it done. This is actually a crucial requirement for this app and not being able to do it would force me to abandon FlexReport and stick with C1eRport which I do not want to do.

  Thanks,

  Mike

  Hello Mike,

  You can use the PdfFilter object, as explained on this documentation link:
  
  http://help.grapecity.com/componentone/NetHelp/FlexReport/webframe.html#ExportingReportstoVariousFormats.html

  With this, you can specify the file name and path, and export the report to pdf without user interaction.
  
  Let me know if you need further assistance.

  Best Regards,
  
  Esha
