VB.Net Crystal Reports Implementation Errors 1

[KreativeKai]

In our shop two of us have been creating applications using CrystalReports in VB.NET. The development and live environment are both XP SP2.

While testing the applications on our own development systems, everything worked / tested out fine. Upon implementation on the client's PC, we're encountering errors.

The first error was:
File or assembly name CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, or one of its dependencies, was not found.

We set the "Copy Local" property of the following references to "True":
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
CrystalDecisions.ReportSource
CrystalDecisions.Shared
CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms

After rebuilding the project and testing, this error no longer is a problem.

The next error we received was:
File or assembly name CrystalKeyCodeLib, or one of its dependencies, was not found.

We added CrystalKeyCodeLib to our references and this solved this error.

Next we're seeing these errors:

COM object with CLSID {D97C7D7D-FF5B-4802-BE3F-D8748E986F7B} is either not valid or not registered.

Load crpe32.dll failed.

Cannot find KeycodeV2.dll, or invalid keycode.

We've been searching BusinesObjects.com, MSDN.com, various message boards and Google, without much luck. Maybe someone can give us some insight on the steps needed to implement a project using Crystal Reports to help avoid many of these errors. For example, what references should we include and are there any property settings that we might need to change as a default procedure when implementing.

Thanks in advance for any input you can give us.
