Here is my situation:

1)My application needs a Crystal Reports .dll named keycodev2.dll.

2) I am not allowed to add it via add reference.

3) After doing some research, I found that I need to input my .net license code to make this .dll available to me. Apparently I need to run regwiz.exe to input the license number.

4) regwiz.exe is in the same directory with the .dll.

5) When I attempt to run regwize.exe in Windows, I get a message stating that it must run from within the application.

6) When I attempt to run it from a command prompt, I get "cannot get a valid keycode" in a windows popup. However, it does NOT give me a chance to ENTER the keycode.

7) I can't find anything in the VS interface that says "run registration wizard" or something similar.

I suspect that I need help with #7. Somehow I need to kickoff this .exe from within .net. Please advise.
