Check the Crystal Reports manual for dependies required... There should be a few DLL's that are required. (or a Distributable package that your deployment setup needs to start)

Under your Crystal Reports installation directory there should be a directory named 'Developer Files' and under that should be a 'Help' directory. Look for a help file called 'Runtime'. This contains a list of dependencies.

Suan Ngaihte,
You could also use ********** to find all your dependencies for any project. Look in my signature.

Actually the complete path to the Runtime.hlp file for CR 8.5 is -
?:\Program Files\Seagate Software\Crystal Reports\Developer Files\Help\Runtime.hlp
Now just use it to find what dlls/ocxs you need to add to your package. It depends on what you used in your code and references and or control that the help file will list out which files to include. ;)
What packager are you using?

Thanks for your help and guidance, I have not yet try but I will be trying very soon. I am using Setup Factory 7.0 or Astrum Install Wizard 2.08.00 as my packager. If possible please give me further guidance and helps.

Suan Ngaihte,
Is that a question? If so you can use the manual that comes with it to get an idea. Download the documentation.
