Try this:

Application.StartupPath & "\ProductList.rpt"

Are you sure that the report file resides in the same location where your EXE file is ?

[bestex]

yes sir..
because when i use these path it works ..

   cryRpt.Load("C:\Users\bestex\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Thesis2\ProductList.rpt")

all i want is to used application.startuppath

Put a break point on the line "cryRpt.Load(Application.StartupPath & "ProductList.rpt")" and check the "Application.StartupPath & "ProductList.rpt" to see if you get the full qualified file path.

Msgbox (Application.StartupPath & "\ProductList.rpt")

Compare the path that you got from the above code and the one you have previously posted.
