    Type 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section' is not defined.

    I am getting this error. Can anyone tell me what this means and how I resolve this issue.

    It looks to me like a reference error yet all Crystal reference are included. I have set up a test program and this work fine. Yet when I run this in my main program I get this error. This is trying to run a Crystal Report. I know this is Crystal but I don't think it is an error or issue with Crystal I think it is more related to the the set up of the program.

    I have attached a screen print of the error of which I get 18 error. Error

    Correction Options gives me:

    Change CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section to
    Global.CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section

    Help please!

    Re: Type 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section' is not defined.

    Additonally I notice that in the test program I have created where the report works fine. The report file does not seemed to have an attached rprTest.vb. Where as on my main project it does and this is where there errors are produced.

    How can I access the vb code on the report in my test project so I can compare the two?

    I am clutching at straws here, and getting very desperate. Help anyone please!

    Hi, I'm having this exact problem. Already switched to .Net 4 Full, etc. Did you ever get it resolved and if so how? Thanks.

    We must get a dozen moans and groans about Crystal Reports every week and none of them is ever resolved because

    a) nobody in their right minds uses Crystal Reports and we therefore have no 'experts' available

    b) see a)

    Sorry and all that but dem's just the facts.
