Crystal Report Deployment - How To Set Database Location
Jun 21, 2010
I am developing a vb.net windows application with crystal report and ms access. My database is stored in bin folder. I cannot bind database to report after deployment. How can I set the database location in report?
im from malaysia andive been using this forum for months now as a guide an reference for visual basic coding.i never posted a question before as i could find all the the answer to my problems in other user's thread. this is my firs post, as i cant seem to find the answer anywhere here.
I have deployed a Visual Studio executible module written in VB Net 3.5 SP 1 with Crystal Reports. When the user tries to view a report(s)they are prompted to login in to the data base that has been data sourced into the report module. The correct database was verified before the build was made. The developer is able to run the report in a run mode on the local machine where the VB project was created. In the properties section in the project the following check boxes pertaining to reports were checked on:
Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008(x86, x64) Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Report Viewer
Notes: If the executible module is deployed to a machine that has Visual Studio 2008 installed, the Reports run fine without a database login prompt.If the executible module is deployed to a machine that does not have Visual Studio 2008 installed, the user is prompted for a login. The data base is a SQL server 2008 database.

I have to create a report with crystal reports in my application.my reports is based on a table in my database.As I've seen in the crystal reports designer, I have to add database to the report, and then I can pick the table and fileds that I need in my report.This is a quick and good when I use only one database type (for example Oracle or SQL Server)My questions are:How can I use the same report when my app is on two databases types? (Part of the customers I have use SQL Server, and part of them use Oracle DB)?

i just want to ask if you know any links regarding Crystal Report Tutorial, Or Video Tutorial of it that will teach on how to create a Crystal Report.

I want to know on how to connect the crystal report to a database and gets all the data that I need and displays it. Designing the crystal report. Using TSQL if possible.

I am trying to build a setup file which will install my vb.net application with database and crystal report files to the client.
1.) I created my vb.net application in release mode.
2.) I created new setup project and added my vb.net application project in that solution.
3.) Also added the primary output in application folder
4.) [dun know how to add database so] created app_data folder inside the application folder and added the database file manually from add->file
5.) [dun know how to add crystal reports so] created reports folder inside the application folder and added the reports manually from add->file
6.) Build solution.
7.) Tried deploying in client machine.
8.) Application runs fine and works great. But crystal report files doesn't. When i try to open crystal report some long error messages comes in my way.
So I would like to know is the way i am doing to add the database file and crystal report files correct? how can i make crystal reports work in client machine?

I plan on designing a Crystal Report, and then calling it through VB.NET code. Will the end-user need a Crystal license in order to use the crystal report part of the program?
