We have a VB 6 desktop application using RDC and the crviewer from CR version 8.0, which I want to replace with components from CR version 9.0 so the users can export their reports as .pdf files. (We upgraded from 8.0 to 9.0 so I never had a chance to try 8.5).
I modified and compiled the project on a computer with CR version 9 developer edition and it works fine on that computer. However when I use InstallShield Express 3.5 to make a setup package and install the application on a computer that does not have CR version 9, the reports cannot export to .pdf.
According to Install Shield I need the CR9 merge modules from Crystal. But according to the Crystal web site, these modules are only for use with VS.net. One of the steps in using the CR9 merge modules requires modifying a file called "regwiz.msm" which is included with VS.net and I cannot find it anywhere else. Does anyone know how to integrate the CR9 viewer in a VB6 project without upgrading to .net?
