Can anyone help me with how package an application in VB 6.0 such that, there will be no need to install crystal report on a PC.
I mean which support files should be included in the package.
Regards.

Re: CrystalReport Support Files
doesn't the Package and Deployment Wizard cover this for you?
if you've tried using it, then check the items it included in the package, and maybe you'd be able to spot the components needed...
but i'm not so sure about this...
i hope JL can help...

Re: CrystalReport Support Files
Hi,
The Crystal help-file (albeit poo for other stuff, like coding and usage and stuff) has a list of redistributable files required for it (there are about 3 dlls and 1 ocx for the full range) would recommend the following:
Either read the help file or, create a PDW (as suggested) and examine the setup.lst file created and look for the CR***.** files added for you, then include them in your install.
Hope this helps,
Kieron

ive done this once ... when i was distributing a resume program for my school...i was able to distribute the crsytal components correctly in a newly installed windows 98...its true if you just read the techinical information file (pdf) included with the crystal report cd....you just need a couple of dlls for the CR components' feature of exporting, printing etc....
