Deploying CrystalReports

[Ram]

Hey,
I have a windows Application that I want to deploy to my users.
My application uses CrystalReports.
What do I need to do to deploy the CrystalReports objects with my
Application?
Do I need a special License for distributing the CrystalReports runtime
assemblies?
Thanks ahead

Ram

If you are talking Crystal report.NET (bundled with VS.NET) then see this

You need 'merge modules' to deploy your application without installing Crystal
on client side
You can download them over there: http://support.businessobjects.com/fix/merge_modules.asp

First, thanks alot for both of you - Norman and Michael.
I'v download the merged modules and repackaged my application, and sent
it to my QA team, tomorrow I'll get their response and will let you
know if it worked,
So thanks again for your reply and I'll report tomorrow
