    You shouldn't worry about registering files - installer (regardless of what you'd use) will do that for you. Just make sure all files are included.
    There is also Package & Deploymenr Wizard available it comes shipped with VB.

    That file is not the only file you will need to run Crystal Reports. Have you found all the files you need?

    If you are using Inno Setup, look at the Inno Third Party Tools. There are app that can make your job a lot easier and they are updated often as well as Inno Setup.
