Crystal Reports 2008 and XCelcius

I bought some Crystal 2008 licenses (the pricing for Developer
functionality is a lot better now that they've done away with the three
versions), along with a copy of XCelcius which looked like a cool way to
generate shiny pretty presentation graphics for stuff.



1. Anyone have any issues with using CR2008-generated .RPT files
in their Vantage environment?

2. I notice that 2008 includes some native support for barcode
generation. Anyone using this?

3. As an aside, I noticed that I'm getting inconsistent results
with some clients not showing the barcode font in the Vantage Crystal
runtime. Anyone see this?

4. Finally, after looking at XCelcius a bit it wasn't clear how I
would get data to the thing for display. Anyone know how to leverage
this in a Vantage environment?
