Gary,

I followed the advice you have given to Aleks Kleyn.
Yet, on the other Win XP workstation, my application is not able to
find/load some Crystal Reports Print Engine DLLs.
Here are some details on my main project and setup project.

Main Project:
1) built in VS.NET 2.0 (2005)
2) based on managed VC++ 2.0 (2005) classes. It is a regular WinForms
desktop application
3) does not use Crystal ReportViewer but only ReportDocument object
model from Crystal Reports 11.5 class library for MS .NET 2.0
Framework.
4) the application explicitly references the following assemblies/
classes from Crystal Reports 11.5 Library for .NET 2.0:
    using namespace CrystalDecisions::Windows::Forms;
    using namespace CrystalDecisions::CrystalReports::Engine;
    using namespace CrystalDecisions::Shared;
    using CrystalDecisions::Enterprise::Desktop::Excel;
    using CrystalDecisions::Enterprise::Desktop::Pdf;
    using CrystalDecisions::Enterprise::InfoStore;
5) The application opens predefined Crystal Report template files
(.rpt), and then generates/exports reports in pdf format to
appropriate locations on the network -- it does not need to display
the contents of any report on the screen
6) works perfectly on my XP Professional workstation where the
application is built

Setup Project:
1) Shows the following detected dependencies:
-> Microsoft .NET framework
-> crystalreports11_5_net.msm
-> Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm
-> policy_8_0_microsoft_8_0_crt_x86.msm

I am able to build both the main project and the setup project
successfully. Then I copy the new-built .msi to the target workstation
and run the transferred .msi file. Then, I launch the application on
the target workstation. It starts successfully. But when I press the
button that launches the actual loading/generation/export of reports,
the application fails because of being i9ncapable to find/load some
necessary parts of Crstal Reports Print Engine.

Could anybody help? Gary, what do you think?
