Programmer
Hi all. I am a new programmer using VB5 and the Crystal Reports 4.6 that came with it. I wrote a program and have sold over 1200 copies to Windows 95/98/ME users. For some reason the crystl32.ocx (4.6.3714) would never register on NT/2000. I didn't know how to fix this so I just put it off and didn't sell to those users. Now it won't work with Windows XP. The error message on XP is "crystl32.ocx is not a valid windows image". That is a problem that I can't put off, if I want to sell any more of my software anyway! 
Is there an easier fix to this problem that I just don’t know about?
Should I buy a copy of Crystal 8 off eBay for $50?
Can anyone tell me from experience what version of Crystal does work on all of those versions of Windows?
I wrote to Crystal and they will not guarantee that version 8.5 will work with WinXP. I definitely want it to make my software work with 98/ME, NT/2000 and XP with whatever fix I do.
I'm not doing anything complicated, just very simple database reports.
ANY help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance and have a great day!
