Crystal 2013 Mapi Export Option

Hi, I know this previous post (Export Report to Application) has been locked but I have had this request from ALL previous V6 users now having upgraded to V7.
They seemed to have used the 'MAPI' export function often to email reports to specific clients - namely, BO's, Sales History, etc.
Any chance of adding this in at some point! I know time is always at a premium.
Cheers

I'd rather tackle this by doing a new plugin based on the export to application plugin which adds an "Email" button to the toolbar, and when pressed loads an email maintenance form, with everything filled out and the report attached.

Using MAPI as the transport mechanism is going to be an issue, so doing as I described above will mean the transport mechanism is whatever plugin they've opted to enable (SMTP, Outlook or Office 365 - or any other plugin).

This has been done - 7.00.166.00 will include it, or you can get the plugin now from this topic.

Great Mike. Thanks.
Says something about SAP's ability not being able/wanting to add it in to Crystal 2013!
