mandianie,
It would help if you give more information when you ask questions if you want good responses.
Are you using an installation package to install your app? You should be installing the Crystal Reports files with your installation package.
If you're using Crystal Report ocx or component or designer i your project then you must include ALL runtime files: refer to Crystal's manual to find which files are mandatory for distribution.
If you designed your reports to run as a stand along reports then end user must have Crystal Reports software installed (this also means extra lisensing might be in order).
What version of CR do you have? You should have a help file called Runtime.hlp. This help file will describe all the dependancies
that are required for each CR control, method, function, etc that you use in your app. You can then add these files to your package manually
and your good to go.
Thank you for the replies as well as the advice :wave:
