Hi,
I'v upgraded from a Win7 32bit with VS2010 to Win7 64bit with VS2012.
Since the "old" Setup Project doesn't exist anymore, I figured out the InstallShield Limited Edition. This is ok when creating a setup for a windows form, service, ...
However, I'm having problems now when creating a setup of a windows form containg a Crystal Report. I did the following test to rule out conversion / reference problems from an old VS2010 project
1) created a new VS2012 windows form project
2) added a Crystal Report Viewer (I installed the Crystal Reports Developer version first - CRXI is also installed)
3) compile & build the project = ok, no errors or warnings. So I know the references, ... are ok.
Then, I have added a InstallShield Limited Edition project
1) added the projects output from the windows form
2) compile & build the project -> gettings stuck on the text below and giving me +1000 warnings (saying it can't files that are used in the report, like previous.gif, ...)
getting stuck on: "merging CR11_NET_EmbeddedReporting c:\program files (x86)\Common Files\Merge Modules\Crystal11_NET_EmbeddedReporting.msm"
warings like: "Warning 66 -7205: Skipping file AFDashboardPage.dll.E8FDE94B_B033_42E3_88D3_4DB63695BBAE due to unmerged or missing component AFDashboardPage.dll.E8FDE94B_B033_42E3_88D3_4DB63695BBAE in merge module..."
When I create a setup of a windows form without Crystal Reports, everything runs fine. So I'm sure it has to do with the CR merge module (ok, like the warning says).
I checked the file location, the .msm file is there, it's (re)installed, .... Even the CR redistributable package is installed.
I searched the web, but can't seem to find the sollution. Hoping to get some help and tips here. Thanks in advance.
