Im using CR11 and VB 2005 Express. Im trying to load a report into the Crystal Report Viewer control. Heres the code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
AxCRViewer1.ReportSource = "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Temporary Projects\WindowsApplication1\customer.rpt"
End Sub
End Class
The error is "Specified cast is not valid". What does this mean?
Thanks
CR 11 (from Business Objects) has some bugs that doesn't make you load the report. I was using CR11 with VS 2003 and the report was designed without error and it always appeared a Runtime error. What did I do? I uninstall CR11, install CR9, open the .rpt designed in CR11, I saved (it seems that changes some internal structure) and re-open the application... the report worked perfectly.

Do you know where I could find CR9?
In the Emule? http://www.emule-project.net
are there any legal alternatives?
Buy it, or use the mini-CR that comes with VS 2003...
