I have crystal reports 9 and vb .net. In my windows application. I manipulate a table which is to be used as the source of a crystal report. When the user clicks the report button, the app. should open a new form with the crystal reports viewer, showing a pre-Designed local report for printing. I am stuck, because no matter how I try, I cannot bind the data to the report.

I have tried by name using full path and relative path. I get an error that says no such interface supported.

I have tried by creating a report object, but I cannot add the namespace CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine , as it says it can't be found.

I have tried also adding the report to my project, and creating a new instance of the report, but it says the type is not defined.

It almost seems like I don't have crystal installed properly, but I just re-installed it and am still running into the same problems. Can anybody offer me some advice?

Thanks, Jonathan
