Does anyone know what needs to be installed to get a Crystal Report to print from a PC using a VFP exe and does not have Crystal Reports installed. The rpt file is external and I use OLE to set the datasource, which works great on my PC. I have tried to register craxdrt dll on a test PC, but I get an error "module could not be found". The message does say what module. I have tried to install "CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Runtime.msm" and "CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Reportengine.msm", I get a message "cannot open this file without knowing what program created it." Please do not "point" me to a link or the developers documents. I have been reading them since last Thursday from every post I can find. Some say install "Microsoft Jet Pack version 3.5" and then MDAC 2.8 or must have some update to VS2003 or2005. These suggestions were made in 2004 or 2005 and relate to Office97, and does not feel like current advice. Our PC's are XP Pro with Office 2007 Pro.
Please Help, I am missing something. I am registered on the SAP BO site but have major problems finding anything there. I can't believe deploying Crystal is this complicated. I hope someone has an msi file that will install the runtime files needed to print or view a Crystal Report. Thanks, Chuck
