Hi
I have just used Crystal reports for the first time so am not sure of its actrual workings.
When I convert my app to an exe will the crystal reports still work if the computer I run the app on, does not have crystal reports installed. Of course I will have the actual report files on the strange computer, but I will not have the actual crystal reports program. Will it work?
Nope it won't if you don't distribute all needed file.
Files needed for Crystal Reports:
Control
Crystl32.ocx
Crystal Reports Runtime Files
Crpaig32.dll
Crpe32.dll
Crxlat32.dll
Implode.dll
P2sodbc.dll
Crystal Reports Export Format Files
U2ddisk.dll
U2dmapi.dll
U2fcr.dll
U2fdif.dll
U2fhtml.dll
U2fodbc.dll
U2frec.dll
U2frtf.dll
U2fsepv.dll
U2ftext.dll
U2fwks.dll
U2fwordw.dll
U2fxls.dll
serge, I'm trying to run a crystal report from my .net app...when crystals installed, it runs fine...otherwise I get this error...
load crpe.dll failed
any suggestions?
You may be missing a few dlls. From runtime.hlp
The required runtime files for an application developed using the Crystal Report Print Engine API (crpe32.dll) are listed below.
FILE LOCATION DESCRIPTION
CRPE32.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Interface to the Crystal Report Engine
CRPAIG80.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Crystal Reports text object support
IMPLODE.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Compression Library
MFC42.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Microsoft Foundation Class Libraries
MSVCIRT.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Runtime Library
MSVCP60.DLL \WINDOWS\SYSTEM or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (NT only) Runtime Library
NOTE: Include IMPLODE.DLL only for applications using reports created in versions previous to SCR 8.
I created a new setup package...now when I go to run my app on a NT or XP without Crystal installed I get no report. The report viewer opens but no report and no error msg...any suggestions?
What database are you using. If your using access, you may need to install jet.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...114&id=Q239114
If you are using another database, check runtime.chm for the required dlls for that database.
it's a Oracle Database
