Visual Basic 6 + Crystal Reports 9 - how to distribute

solanky
I have made a software with Visual Basic 6 and Crystal Reprots 9. Now I have to distribute it on the client side but the problem is coming in distributing the Crystal Reports. I have tried Setup Factory but it is not working. Then I have used Visual Studio Installer from Microsoft and downloaded Crystal Report Merge Modules from Business Objects website. It is working properly but now the setup file size is very big because it carries a lot of files with it.
Is there any other installer software which can automatically select the required files to be distribute with the project so that it takes minimal resources.

I don't want to use Visual Basic Deployment Wizard.


Thanks in advance.

have you tried using the deployment wizard to find which files need to be deployed with it, extracting them then adding them to your install package? if you are making your own installer you could then install those files when you install your program!

The Visual Studio package is the best that you can find out there. As far as I know, there isn't any way to compress the file any more. On top of that, its ease of use is pretty hard to beat. How large is the installer and what medium were you planning to use?

probelem in making VIEW and its linking with Crystal Report
Visual Basic 6 + Crystal Reports 9

Sir,

I have developed a software in VB. I m facing probelem in making VIEW and its linkage with Crystal report.

I had linked table of access directly with crystal report. But it had a big probelem when I wanted to take printouts of those reports because multiple pages came to be printed on report instead of one which I desired to print.
I will be awated for your positive response.

    What many of us do not know is that using a button on a form with the function "Unload Form1" or

    is still on. It may not exit the program cleanly and efficiently, may leave background processes
    running, or just give you unwanted errors by exiting improperly. All you need to do is unload all
    components, forms, controls, etc. upon unloading. Say you have 2 forms in your project, 1
    component, and 2 controls. If these ojects are placed onto a form, unload them properly!....

    program, or an item in a combo box. Let's say this is a bad string, something you do not want
    to appear. For instance, a user types "X is gay" in a text box, and you want to change that to
    something else. You can simply have it be deleted, or replaced with another value. 2. To make
    this work when a user types something in a textbox, you will need to use this sub: CODE ....
