Example

'The following example performs the following
'1)Loads an ActiveReport from a presaved XML file 
'2)Runs the report
'3)Exports the report to a byte array in PDF format
'4)Adds the byte array to ActiveReports WebCache so
'that it may be streamed directly to the browser
'The example code is placed in a user-defined function.
'A typical scenario would be for this function to be placed
'in a COM object and called from an ASP page.
'You could then do an ASP response.redirect to the 
'url where the pdf export was cached.
