I need to be able to browse any *.rpt file which I got working not clicking
then I need to start Crystal Report control and start the report. Can anyone
help Please here is the code:

I have a common Dialog control named dlgCommonDialog
            CrystalReport1 control

Private Sub Form_Load()

   Dim sFile As String

    With dlgCommonDialog
        .DialogTitle = "Open Crystal Report"
        .CancelError = False
        'ToDo: set the flags and attributes of the common dialog control
        .Filter = "All Reports (*.rpt)|*.rpt"
        .ShowOpen
        If Len(.FileName) = 0 Then
            Exit Sub
        End If
        sFile = .FileName
    End With

    CrystalReport1.ReportFileName = sFile
    CrystalReport1.Action = 1

End Sub

First of all what happens with the code below?  And second if Crystal
Reports is you default app for RPT files, why not shell the rpt file?
Furthermore when I work with Crystal inside VB I also throw in the follwoing
code for robustness

CrystalReport1.DataFiles(0) = DatabasePath
'just to tell the control where to find the data for the specified report.
This is also done in you rpt though.
