Rerporting from Express?

Hello,

I have just installed VB Express and was toying with upgrading a project
from VB 2003. Reports designed in Crystal seem to port fine enough,
however, I am unable to open the reports for editing. I searched the docs
for registering the custom tool so that I may continue editing, to no avail.
I realize that the express edition is not as full featured as the other
versions, part of my plan to sell the purchase was to demonstrate an
upgrade.

Anyone have any ideas?

The Express Editions do not support Crystal Reports. My guess is that you
are ok running converted apps as they still target your previous install of
Crystal but you won't see any support within the IDE.
