[RESOLVED] crystal reports dll`s

Good Day,

I have a simple program which runs on vb6, and with it reporting tools from crystal reports 10.
now i was wondering if all installed crystal reports tools on the program will work on pc`s without(installing) actually installing crystal reports?

im working on the DLL`s now but it seems not working...




Thanks~

Have you created an Installation package for your VB6 application. If not, you need to, this shouyld contain all the necessary DLL's. Then simply install it on the target pc.

i have it done on package and deployment, but these two DLL seems not attaching to it - crqe.dll
and cxlibw-1-6.dll. it said it can not be registered, even if i do it manually.

Are these dll's in your project references? Have you tried Googling "problem registering cxlibw-1-6.dll". Also, does the target pc have the same operating system as your machine.

Thanks wes4dbt, as i have located a fix thanks to your clues!

Error:
crqe.DLL and cxlibw-1-6.dll register error on insallation via packaged setup.

Fix:
Update DotNet Framework
include cxlibw-1-6.dll on the components to be added on the package
Set cxlibw-1-6.dll system path to $WinSysPath on final packaging setup(where you see all components, target location, Target system path)
crqe.dll error gone on the above fix


As for my original post, yes it is possible just be sure all components(DLLs,OCX,and the likes were included on the package.


Thanks!:wave:
