RptView

RptView is a software application designed specifically for helping you view and analyze Crystal Reports files using straightforward actions.

You are welcomed by clean and simplistic window that hosts all configuration settings in a single panel. A help manual is not included in the package but you do not need one to decode the program’s features, as they are intuitive and easy to digest.

RptView gives you the possibility to import files in the working environment using the built-in browse button (you cannot rely on the drag-and-drop support).

The application implements a tree-like display so you can easily browse throughout the content of your Crystal Reports files. What’s more, you are allowed to refresh the list with the files.

The tool helps you set a user-defined folder from your computer that includes all your Crystal Reports files. All reports in the directory and subfolders are displayed in the main window.

All things considered, RptView delivers only a simplistic software solution for helping you check out Crystal Reports files without having to install the server on your system, and can be used by less experienced users and professionals alike.

However, its features are basic and limited only to viewing capabilities, so you are not allowed to export data to other file formats, perform searches, and edit the information. On the downside, it hasn’t been updated for a while, you can make use of its features especially if you are the owner of old operating system, such as Windows XP, Vista, 7, 2003, or 2008.
