Visual Studio 2008 Question

Question

I need help with this - I am updating a VB6 program to Visual Studio 2008.  What I need to do in VS2008 is:
  - Open Crystal Report
  - log into Crystal Report
  -set the format
  -save Crystal Report as text.
Here is the code in VB6.  I'm new for VS2008 so I am having a hard time figuring this out.  
Thank you for your help!
    Dim crxApp As New CRAXDRT.Application
    Dim crxRpt As CRAXDRT.Report
    Dim strRpt() As String
    Dim intRpt As Integer
    Dim dtFirst, dtEnd As Date
    Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
    cn.ConnectionString = "myconnectionstring"
    cn.Open
    'Print daily scrap reports
    Select Case DatePart("w", Date)
        Case 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
            ReDim strRpt(3)
            intRpt = 1
            strRpt(1) = "Y:\MP\REPORTS\REPORT1"
            strRpt(2) = "Y:\MP\REPORTS\REPORT2"
            strRpt(3) = "Y:\MP\REPORTS\REPORT3"
            'Print daily scrap reports
            For intRpt = 1 To 3
                Set crxRpt = crxApp.OpenReport(strRpt(intRpt) & ".rpt")
                crxRpt.Database.Tables(1).SetLogOnInfo "mylogoninfo"   (can't figure out how to do this part in VS2008)
                crxRpt.ReadRecords
                crxRpt.DisplayProgressDialog = False
                With crxRpt.ExportOptions                               (how do I set the export options)   
                    .FormatType = crEFTPaginatedText
                    .UseDefaultCharactersPerInch = False
                    .UserDefinedCharactersPerInch = 10
                    .NumberOfLinesPerPage = 67
                    .DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
                    .DiskFileName = strRpt(intRpt) & ".txt"
                End With
                crxRpt.Export (False)
            Next intRpt

You can try using the reportdocument object to do the following:
     Objective                                             method
Open Crystal Report                    ReportDocumentObject.Load()
Log into Crystal Report                ReportDocumentObject.SetDatabaseLogon() 
Set the format                             ExportToDisk()  
Save Crystal Report as text.         ExportToDisK (Export in txt format).
You can refer to:
