Installing Crystal Report Runtime components

Dick Berti

I am using VB.Net 2005 and have created a report using the included Crystal Reports. Can someone direct me to which components, resources, etc. I need to check to get the proper installation files for my user. I am using the Publish Wizard to deploy and am getting several errors indicating that I don't have the proper Cyrstal Report items. I just want the user to be able to run the report I have included in my VB.Net application. Thanks for the help.

U will have to include crystal reports setup as a prerequisite
For that right click on your application ->Properties -> Publish ->
Install Mode and Settings ->Prerequisites -> Check Crystal Reports For .Net Framework 2.0 option

Hope this helps :)
Merry Christmas
