Crystal Reports, Win98, Object Error

Good Afternoon all,

I have searched the news groups/web for anything releated to this
problem but have come up empty. The situation is I have developed a
program which allows the user to select an access database of their
choosing and generate a report. Program works well under XP, however
under Windows 98 I get the error "Object reference not set to an
instance of an object". Here is what I have done on the Windows 98SE
machine.

Brand new install of the OS.
Update the MDAC to 2.8 reboot
Update Explorer to 6.1 service pack 1 reboot
Update to Framework 1.1, exact same framework that is on the test
machine
Install my program.

I have included the Crystal_*.msm merge modules needed for the
application in my installation program. Program starts, accesses the
database as I select the table which I want to have a report run on,
which then launches the Crystal Reports Viewer, and then the error
occurs after the screen is brought up (no report shown). Exact same
program and db file used as on the XP development machine.

Anyone know the solution?

Thanks in advance...

Troy
