Xcopy Crystal Reports 10 runtime without Merge-Modules

[tklapettek]

Hello, I want to deploy Crystal Reports 10 without using merge-modules.
I'm using Crystal Reports 10 developer edition. So I created a report
in CR10 and call in in .Net 2003 (see example below). It's an
application for our company, so I don't need a setup routine with all
overhead files in it. So, the questions are: Which files must be copied
? Do I have to register some of them ??? Do I have to do something with
the license key for the reports (like the CR-version which is included
in .Net 2003 ??
I searched the Internet, but I don't found anything what helps me. Does
somebody can help me ?? Thanks a lot.....
Dim CrReportDocument As
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocum ent
Dim crDatabase As Database
'Create an instance of the strongly-typed report object
CrReportDocument = New
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocum ent
CrReportDocument.FileName =
System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath &
"\Reports\Kostendaten.rpt"

' Daten aus der tabelle in den DataAdapter lesen
ora_da = New OracleClient.OracleDataAdapter("SELECT JAHR, MONAT,
BETRAG, GUV_KONTO,ANLAGEKLASSE, BEZEICHNUNGSFELD, " & _ " NAME,
PRIMANOTA, REVERSIERUNG FROM XXMCL_KOSTENDATEN where Jahr = " &
Me.txt_ReportJahr.Text & " and Monat = " & Me.cmb_ReportMonat.Text &
str_Status, cn_RoleConnection)

ora_da.Fill(ora_ds, "XXMCL_KOSTENDATEN ")

'Pass the populated dataset to the report
CrReportDocument.SetDataSource(ora_ds)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = CrReportDocument
CrystalReportViewer1.Show()

I read a while back that someone had done this, but they didn't give any
details. I think it was pretty complicated b/c there are also registry
entries to need to make. The best idea I would have is to use one of those
programs that track everything done to your computer during an installation
(so it can be rolled back) and then look at its log file to see what changes
it tracked.

HTH,
