The report viewer is used to display a report. You still need to add a report to your application.

From the main menu, select Project, Add Crystal Reports 8.5

If you have an existing report, you can import it from here.

This will create a report that will appear in the Designer section in the Project Window. Double click on that and a list of all designer objects will appear (ie your report). Double click on your report and it will open up like any other VB form. This is where you will double click on the picture to get to the format section.

Read the link I gave above, it will show you how to interact between the viewer and you report.

Hope this helps.

Could you please tell me how to add Crystal report to project?
I went to the main menu and click "project", but there is no selection for adding Crystal report, only "data report", are you talking about that one?

please help

Provided everything is installed properly, you need to add the Designer component.

Project -> Components menu
Select the Designers Tab
Check the Crystal Reports 8.5
Click OK

This should insert the Add Crystal Report 8.5 item under the Project menu.
