what are the Crystal Run Time files needed on USer's machine

[bhargi]

Hi
Iam using Access2000 and Crystal Report Developer edition(8.5)
Iam passing parameter values from the Access forms.
Iam referencing in my access form via VBCODE to CRYSTAL REPORT CONTROL.(example DIM m_CrystalRpt as crystalReport1).
Iam setting the file name and setting the action to 1(preview option).

What the files /dlls/exes's necessary for me to install on my users machine? or how should I deploy the crystal application?

I also have crysal Enterprise edition. My users have windows 95 machine but access 00. Does the windows version creates an problem in accessing crystal reports?

My users just need to view the reports. Inorder to view the report I DON't think we need to install crystal reports on their machine.
Please let me know what are the files we need .
I just need to register the dlls on user's machine(using regsvr32) or any other procedures??

Thanks for your help.

If you have Crystal Enterprise, consider using the browser control and leverage this powerful tool, it has far more features than you're likely to be able to code into an Access->VB based solution.

To instantly get them up and running, start them at the ePortfolio launchpad.

Locate RUNTIME.HLP file on your PC.
It provides a detailed answer, which as explained in that help file, dependes on your crystal automation method, data access, exporting options, etc.

Hi,
Thanks For your advice.Sorry I Can't use browser control as I have done lot of calculations and code in the VBA Section.

I referred Runtime.hlp. In the dataBaseAccess Index they metioned as Direct Access -Access 7 and direct Access -access 8 methods
What is this Access 7 and 8?? I know as Access 2000,97 but not as 8 or 7.How should I know whether Access 2000 is 7 or 8?

Iam referencing in my VBA code to crystal Report COntrol.( like this:- DIM m_cyrstalRpt as crystalReport1) DO I need to look the runtime files for CR CONTROL OR CRYSTAL REPORT 8.5 activeX DESIGNER COMponent? Iam not using the CR control in the design time. What is this Report Designer component?Please advice the above.

THANKS AGAIN.
