VB Crystal Report error

sandani25

Hi Friends,

I am facing a problem modifying an existing crystal report written in version 4.5. The report is on a different machine, crsytal reports is not installed on it, so I copied the report on to my local system and modified it by opening in VS.NET 2003(I don't have crystal report v4.5 on my system and I can't install it on any of the systems due to some problem)

After modification, when I tried to save the report, got the message :"Warning: this report is saved in previous version of Crystal reports using an older report file format. If this report is re-saved in the current version, the report file format will be upgraded to a new file format , causing it to be unusable in previous versions of Crystal Reports.
Do you want to update in new file format?"

When I click "Yes", the report is getting saved, and when I copy the report back on to the other machine, getting amessage "Unable to open the report".

Please help me to overcome this problem. The only way is to install the Crystal report versin 4.5 on any machine?

Thanks

You can try exporting the result in Excel or other formats and then try to import it in v4.5
