Hi All -

I'm using CRW 8.5. I must be missing a .DLL or have an out-of-date one
somewhere but I'm going nuts over this. Everything works OK in my attempt
to export a report. I click on the export button in the viewer and I get
the little box showing FORMAT:(PDF) and DESTINATION: Disk File.

All is well and good to this point. I click the OK button and I get the
Page Range screen - I select ALL and click on OK again. After that -
nothing. I am missing the "Choose export file" window/box where you name
the PDF file and advise where to put it. It works on my lap-top where I
hace CRW8.5 installed. It does NOT work where I do NOT have CRW8.5
installed. I don't want to install CRW8.5 - it must work without the
install.

So, I think it's a certain (unknown) Crystal file (.DLL or other) that I'm
having a problem with. Anybody have a clue.

Desperate.....Mike

Hi Vic -

I have done most of what you suggested but I will double check the files.
Question: are ANY of these DLLs supposed to be registered or is just putting
them in the suggested directories good enough?? Do I have to create a
\PROGRAM FILES\SEAGATE SOFTWARE\SHARED directory for some of the suggested
DLLs or can I put those DLLs in \Windows\System32 or \WINNT\System32
directory?

TIA,

BigMike

NOTE: You must register these DLLs using regsvr32.exe. ( if deployed)
CRAXDRT.DLL
CRVIEWER.DLL
CRAXDDRT.DLL
CRDESIGNERCTRL.DLL
CRYSTL32.OCX
EMFGEN.DLL
Here's one-->CRTSLV.DLL that has to be registered ( they don't say so)
Here's another-->EXPORTMODELLER.DLL, that they don't tell you but must
be registered and may very well be the ones causing your problem. Both the
above are used in exporting.

Do I have to create a

The System directory. (maybe System on 9x/ME or System32 on NT/2K/XP)
I believe all go in the {win}\Crystal or {sys}\ directories.

Thank you so much Vic.....I'll get right on it.

As usual - the VDB News Group is on top of things.

I wish a Happy New Year to all - even the VB guys (boy, am I in a good
mood!)
