Running program without visual studio.net

[Cinta]

Hi currently Im developing program in vb.net with crystal
report as well. What I want to do is running the system
to the other computer without visual studio.net installed
on the particular computer. As I try to do it, its shows
an error message said that the crystal report need some
kind of dependencies file.

Is there anyone have any idea what its need to be install
on the particular computer.

Thanks in advance

You need to build a deployment project.
Including the stuff for crystal is a bit tricky as you have to add dlls and
supply the registration details crystal gave you.

Even if they claim it's DotNet, Crystal is COM. As such, they have their own
client setup, cr9netredist.msi, which you can find at:

After running this on your client machine your app should work without any
installation.

Personally I've been with Crystal for years and it's always been a real
pain. Lots of problems, version 9 included. You may want to consider using a
purely DotNet reporting package instead, though I haven't had the time or
occasion to recommend one to you.

HTH,
