Using smart tags
Crystal Reports lets you take advantage of smart tags in Office XP. When
you paste a chart, a text object, or a field object into an Office XP application,
you can view data from the host report after selecting a smart tag option.
This table summarizes the options available to you.

Before you can use smart tags, web server options must be configured on
the Smart Tag tab of the Options dialog box. As well, an .asp or .jsp page
must be created for viewing report details. Normally, these tasks should be
carried out by your system administrator.
Note:
•
The reports you want to use with smart tags must exist on the web server
named in the Options dialog box in a directory that mirrors their real
location, or the web server must be configured to accept a UNC path.
•
The Smart Tag option is only available at design time.
