Crystal Reports

[Randy]

Hello,
Sorry if this is not the correct group to post this in. I couldn't find an
actual Crystal Reports group except for the VB one.
I'm currently using .NET 2003.
I have a aspx NET web solution created with the previous version of .NET. On
one page of the app I've got a report page (UserReport.aspx) that has a
Crystal Report (CRUserReport.rpt) on it. Since upgrading to .NET 2003 when I
open this UserReport.aspx page in .NET Studio, where the CRUserReport.rpt
is, now it has "Error Creating Control - CRUserReport". I have several
Crystal Reports on different aspx pages and they all are doing the same
thing. Does anyone know what I need to do to make it work? Do I need to
convert the RPT files?
Thanks for any help.
Cheers

Hey Randy,

Upgrading causes a lot of problems because the CR versioning gets all mucked
up. Most likely your pages are still using the older CR DLLs. You have to
update your references to use the latest CR libraries and make sure the
controls are from those libraries as well.

HTH,

Thanks Brian, I see what you mean...I had to set the Version=9.1.5000.0.0 in
all my aspx pages (in the HTML source). It had the older version there. It
works fine now.
Thanks again...

Yep - happens all the time. If you want to learn more about CR.NET, check
out my book "Crystal Reports.NET Programming". It has a ton of useful tips
and tricks for all stages of report development.
