Title: VB.NET sample SDK code
Post by: jonc on 02 Oct 2007 08:57:57 AM
Hello,

I'm trying to write an application in VB.net to run cognos 8 reports and distribute to clients. (I have about 1500 individual recipients and don't want to buy a consumer license for each of them) my problem is I can find no decent documentation for the SDK on the support site and no sample code.

Does anyone out there have any VB.net sample code for connecting to Cognos connection and running / saving a report or can point me in the direction of the Cognos documentation I'm missing.

Thanks in advance.

Jon

Hello Jon,

as I understand the serveral licenses, this is not allowed. There is a Remote Recipients License. So this kind of license is needed at least,
