Hi
Am using Crystal Report 8.5 in my vb6 application. it's all working fine but when i package it and install it on a computer that does not have crystal reports installed on it, it gives me an error that says " The file Crystl32.ocx or one of it's
dependancies was not correctly registered"
i have tried inno setup, package and deployment wizard and installshield and they all give me the same result after installation.
Please help....
Have you tried manually registering it using RegSvr32?
I've had the same problem with various versions of Crystal, and the only way I've ever gotten around the problem was manual registration.
Thanks so much!!
i have manually registered it and i am not getting that error anymore. Now the next thing is Do i have to maually register this file every time i install my application on a computer that does not have Crystal reports?
Thanks...
It is a toss up. As I mentioned, I gone through the same thing. Sometimes the installation will register it and sometimes it won't.Quote:

Or, you can provide written instructions for them to perform this themselves.
I've never used Inno, but couldn't you script it so it runs Regsvr32 at the end of the installation and register the ocx that way? I use Wise and it would be a simple matter to have Wise run Regsvr32 and pass it Crtstal32.ocx as a parameter. I would guess Inno has similar capabilities.
Just a thought.
