Suggestion for newer runtime product

[mangledbabyducks]

Our company developed a stand alone runtime utility based on Crystal Reports 10. We are looking at creating a newer stand alone runtime utility but I'm not sure which version to use, either CR2008 or CR2011.

Looking at the following website, the product end-of-life date is longer with CR2008 as opposed to CR2011.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

I think that must be a mistake on the page. I doubt that they will stop supporting 2011 before they stop supporting 2008. And those dates seem to get shifted back regularly when they get closer.

The other possibility is that with the new SP of BO 4 that they will come out with a newer version of CR 11 which would be supported longer.
