VB6 & CR11 application deployment

[Mayormdau]

Hie guys;
How is everyone doing out there. Could anyone of you guys help me ship my vb6 application? I designed some reports using CR11.

I created a setup for this application using inno script and inno setup.

The application works fine when installed on my computer which has got CR11 installed. Now when I install the application on another computer which does not have CR11, I get this error message which is shown below.

Run-time error '339'
Component 'crviewer.dll' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered:a file is missing or invalid

That should be requesting me to install CR11 on each user’s machine but I do not want to do this but will just need to have users run the reports without CR11 on their computers. Is this possible, if it is could any one of you guys help me.

Thanks

Let's see your script to start

Thanks for the response Randem.Shown below is my script and the path [B]"V:\*"; [/B] references my database and CR11 reports on the server whilst the path "C:\Documents and Settings\moyo\Desktop\Copy of Projmellow\*"; references my vb forms and the project's executable file.

Hope evrything you need is provided here.

Thanks

You state that you used ********** to make this script. I see no evidence of that. It would have picked up the CR files in question that you needed. What did you use to make this script? Where is the start of the script?

[Mayormdau]

Maybe I should have said I used inno setup compiler 5.1.6 to create the setup for the application.What I do not want to do is to install CR11 on each of my users' computers.I want them to run the reports which are kept on the server without CR11 on their computers.

Thanks

The Inno Setup Wizard is like most wizards, not totally effective. You answer questions it attempts to tell your future (something like that). Did you try ********** to find all your dependencies? It does a very good job I might add...
