Hello,
I have a number of reports (written in CR v9) which currently run off my personal PC on our intranet. I add the reports to a Visual Studio ASP.NET web application and it works fine. I really need to move these reports onto a server now but am unsure of the way to go. I have followed the deployment pdfs on the Crystal website but they aren't quite clear enough. Here are my questions,
1. What needs to be set up on the server first (if anything). The machine is a Windows 2003 server. It has the .NET framework installed.
2. The pdfs talk of creating a 'setup' project. Does the project need to be created in the same place as the report? I see that Merge Modules are needed, but what do these do? Once I build the project, what else is required, do I need to run any code on the server for the reports to run?
Any help welcomed,
Thanks
