Crystal Report run-time query

[=?Utf-8?B?cmtibmFpcg==?=]

How can I stop receiving this message while calling a crystal report?

"The report you requested requires further information."

Thanks

[=?Utf-8?B?cmtibmFpcg==?=]

Is the crystal report part of the VS 2008 now? It works find in the preview
mode. Should I contact Crystal Reports (BusinessObject s)?

Thanks.

Thanks for your followup Rkbnair,

Then, I'm afraid the problem should be specific to something inside the
crystal report's internal logic. Have you got any information from the
Crystalreport side?

Thanks Cheng. Per your suggestion, I have created a deployment project and
included the CrystalReportsR edist2005_x86.m sm downloaded from the said
website.
Then, I installed the project on a machine (same machine as the

development

machine). Still the system brings the dialog box ("The report you

requested

requires further information.") prior to running the crystal report.

Hi Rkbnair,

The msm file is the "merge module" file of the Crystal Report
redistributable package. You can use it through Visual Studio setup
project. See the following MSDN reference:

Hi Rkbnair,

Yes, VS 2008 provide Crystal reports developing support and on development
machine you should be able to design and run reports correctly. However,
after you deploy the reports/components to production machine, the reports
should be rely on the Crystal Reports runtime components(redi stritubtable
package...) only. For the case here, I suggest you contact some Crystal
Reports specific support groups to see whether they have any further ideas
on this.

Also, if there is anything related the .net framework part we can help,
welcome to post here.
