Unicows.dll

[maxl6]

Hi, I've created an application that print and export reports with the Crystal Report 9 activex designer runtime(CRAXDRT9.dll). I've created an installation package with the Visual Studios Installer. The package runs fine on XP/2000. But when I run it on 98/98SE, the installer pops out the following error :

-Unicode wrapper not found

Then, the installer completes the installation. When I try to export or print a report in my app I get the error :

-Unicows.dll not found.

I've checked in Windows\system and unicows.dll is present. So I tried to register it with regsvr32 but I get an error message that goes like that :

- unicows.dll was loaded, but the DLLRegisterServer entry point was not found.
DLLRegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupted version of c:\windows\system\unicows.dll may be in memory. Consider using the Pview to detect it and remove it.

So I've tried using PView but there is no trace of Unicows.dll in the memory.

Any clues ??? Thanks

I found some registry keys and values from CR9Deploy.reg were missing.

You need unicows.dll 1.0.3703.0 or higher and it should be in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Crystal Decisions\2.0\bin
