How to Distribute/Deploy Crystal Reports Runtime?

Edward Yang

8/23/2002 3:30:00 PM

My VB.NET Windows Form application has several Crystal Reports that are
displayed using Crystal Report Viewer.

I created a setup project using Visual Studio Installer 1.1 (Any new version
availabe? I can't find update information on Microsoft's Web site), and
added the following merge modules:

Database_Access.msm
Database_Access_enu.msm
Managed.msm
regwiz.msm

as what MSDN tells me to do.

But after running the setup on a fresh installation of Windows 2000 Advanced
Server, I got a message telling me that keycodeV2.dll could not be found.

On my development Windows 2000 Pro system, I have the folder C:\Program
Files\Common Files\Crystal Decisions and several of its sub-folders. But I
cannot find corresponding folder on the new installation system.

Am I missing some merge modules or something?

Hi,

Did you register your version of crystal reports? This is a liscence issue.
Please follow the register wizard popped when you edit the report, to
register the product. Check the following page for more information.

I hope this helps. If you have any questions, please reply to this post.

Thanks for your information. The link you provided is the same one I read on
MSDN.

Yes, I registered Crystal Report that was installed with Visual Studio .NET.
(When I first created a Crystal Report file in VS.NET, the Registration
wizard dialog appeared, I followed the instructions and got my registration
number.)

And I do not think I have the license problem, becaue I am testing my
program and there is ONE connection.

So the key is -- Install Crystal Report on a client machine and have my
program running.

And here is another related 'problem'.

I'd really like to know whether there is a new version of the FREE Visual
Studio Installer (It can be integrated with Visual InterDev 6.0)? I have
version 1.1 installed on my Windows 2000 system, it's great.

I don't think the setup project provided by VS.NET is a full-fledged
product. It just has very little free space for me to configure proejct
settings (e.g., project display title, installation path, dialog message
text, etc.).

Thanks.
