Cannot find file specified error

[Brad]

I will also post this in the CR group but because I program in VB maybe
somebody here might be able to help.

I am working on a new project that incorporates a few forms. I just created
my first form and I am assigning a variable to it here:

Dim anrpt As New ArmbandNumbers

When this line executes I get the error that "The System cannot find the
file specified." and highlights MyBase.New in the report's vb language.

I am doing the exact same thing as I have in another project and that one
works fine.

What might I be missing?

Thanks for the information.

Brad,

It has to be armbandnummers or braceletnumber (or is it SA)

However that can in my opinion not be the error, therefore you should tell
something more

Dim anrpt As New ArmbandNumbers This means create a new object anrpt from the class ArmbandNumbers

That ArmbandNumbers class can be in a referenced dll what maybe is lost,
however now it becomes to much guessing .

I am guessing that you are not using Visual Studio Net now.

Is this the /complete/ error message?

Herfried and Cor,

I created a new Crystal Report using Project | Add New Item | Crystal Report. I then set the dataset and designed the form. I named this form ArmbandNumbers. rpt.

In my main program I:

DIM anrpt as New ArmbandNumbers

When the program hits this line, this is the exact exception that is returned:

"A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.File NotFoundExcepti on' occured in CrystalDecision s.CrystalReport s.Engine.dll'

Additional information: The System cannot find the file specified."

And in the debug, it highlights The MyBase.New():

'------------------------------------------------------------------------------

' This code was generated by a tool.

' Runtime Version: 1.1.4322.573

' Changes to this file may cause incorrect behavior and will be lost if

' </autogenerated>

'------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Option Strict Off

Option Explicit On

Imports CrystalDecision s.CrystalReport s.Engine

Imports CrystalDecision s.ReportSource

Imports CrystalDecision s.Shared

Imports System

Imports System.Componen tModel

Public Class ArmbandNumbers

Inherits ReportClass
Public Sub New()

MyBase.New

End Sub

Thanks for any help you can give. I have several other apps that uses Crystal Reports where everything is working fine and I structured the syntax just like the other programs. And yes, Cor, I am using VB .Net.

And some more information, if I do just this:

Dim anrpt As ArmbandNumbers
daArmNums.Selec tCommand.Parame ters(0).Value = selClassic
daArmNums.Fill( DsArmNums1)
anrpt.Database. Tables(0).SetDa taSource(DsArmN ums1.Tables(0))
crvPrep.ReportS ource = anrpt

I get this exception:

A first chance exception of type 'System.NullRef erenceException ' occurred in
ClassicEntry.ex e

Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an
object.

Brad,

I tried it, no problems, did you try it yourself already with a new project doing nothing more than you said, even not the dataset.

Cor

[Cor Ligthert]

Brad,

You wrote in your previous message something else because this is what you
get when you do not instance an object with New.

Dim anrpt As New ArmbandNumbers

Dim anrpt As ArmbandNumbers

Cor,

I did just create a new project just to test building a report just as I did with the main project, using the same dataset and it works.

So now what should I do, delete the report and all references from the main project and try to recreate it?

That was what I would do, however if you do it is your own choose.

Cor,

I tried deleting all references to Crystal, the report, everything and then
rebuilt the report and it does the same thing.

This is driving me nutty today.
