How did you transfer the EXE to the Machine? did you just Copy the EXE or did you create an Installation Package?

It sounds like you're probably missing some DLL(s) for the Data Control(s) you used and/or the Crystal Report Component.

I have the same problem. Any useful tips?

I have similar problem with 20532, Can't locate database DLL,
I am using SetupFactory to make the setup package,

Currently, I try to use the dependency walker to identify any missing DLL/OCX, hope I can work it out...

Is Crystal installed locally or remotely?

We use the Crystal Report viewer on our intranet, and we get that error when Crystal has crashed on the web server. Restarting it usually does the trick.

I found the probelm and here is how I solved it. For my application, I used ADO but Crystal Report 4.5 does not support ADO. It was relying on Jet 3.51. So what I did was just included the DAO 3.51 Libray from Reference so that it got distibuted with the setup program. It is perfectly Ok now.

Thanks guys.

P.S
(Many people are not aware that Crystal Report 4.5 that shipped with VB5 is still availabe in VS6. It is in the third CD of VS6 )
