Compile Error Can't find Project or Library

**gopikrish** · Oct 13th, 2004, 03:13 PM

I was able to run this project successfully in my office but its giving problems when I run this at my home.I have VB 6 Enterprise edition but no service pack i think.And when I run, it says,
Compile error:
Can't find Project or Library
And when I click "OK" in another References window, the following are displayed with checkbox enabled,
Visual Basic for applications
Visual Basic runtime objects and Procedures
Visual Basic objects and procedures
OLE Automation
Missing: Crystal Report & ActiveX Designer Runtime Library
Missing: Crystal Report & ActiveX Designer Design time library(Internal)
Missing: Microsoft ActiveX Data objects 2.7 Library

Since a part of this project uses reports i guess that "Crystal Report" error is occuring i guess.
Also I dont have MS Access installed but after installing Microsoft office 2000 will the above problems be solved or should I need to download any other things? Please help me.Thanks.

Sounds like you need Crystal Reports installed.

Welcome to the Forums.

You also need MDAC aka. "Microsoft ActiveX Data objects 2.7 Library" installed.
VS Service Pack 5 would be a good idea too.

Crystal reports comes with Visual studio enterprise. Search the disks

Yes, but its only version 4.5 I believe.

I should have stated "Sounds like you need the correct version of Crystal Reports installed.

If you are running VB 6 Enterprise edition, do you have the CD's?

Crystal Report v4.6 is on the first CD in:

Common\Tools\Vb\Crysrept\Crystl32.exe

If you have VB6 CD then its the same file, same location.

I can't find it on the VS 6.0 CD.

You have to install this separately its not a normal VB6 install.

I was close. Only off by 1 revision.
I dont think that the version provided with VB will be the correct
version though.

gopikrish:

Find out what version of CR you are running at work.

**BodwadUK** · Oct 15th, 2004, 03:06 AM

Then copy the required DLLs

**RobDog888** · Oct 15th, 2004, 10:32 AM

CR requires megs of dlls and ocx's just to distribute a program
using CR. I doubt it that it would be very easy to do that. Just ask
your boss if you can install CR at home so you can do work for
free and learn more at the same time. Beneficial to the company.
etc. Then you can have it at home too.
