    Crystal Reports XI + Visual Basic 6

    Hi

    I just downloaded CR XI Dev Ed..

    I am trying to use CR XI to do some reports etc..

    But when i install it.. it does not show up in VB 6 components..

    In some guides it said

    Go to the Project Menu, Components, put a check mark next to the “Crystal
    Reports Control”.

    That control does not show..

    Please help.. new to this.. I need to generate reports etc out of an access DB and i m totaly new to it..

    You have to add the Reference to Crystal ActiveX Report Veiwer Library 11

    edit: sorry had the reference name wrong.

    You should have Crystal ActiveX Report Veiwer Library 11 in both your References and Components list. You might want to try to reinstall crystal and pay close attention to the custom installation options.

    Look at these pics (I have VB6 installed and CR 11 Dev also).

    Add reference


    Add Active X control


    CR Viewer added to the Tools


    The active X control gets placed on a new form and accessed there.
