The steps to fixing the "Invalid Keycode" error are listed below:
WARNING==========
The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using
Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may

Editor at your own risk.
For information about how to edit the registry, view the 'Changing
Keys And Values' online Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
Note that you should make a backup copy of the registry files
(System.dat and User.dat on Win9x computers) before you edit the
registry.
====================
1. Ensure that Visual Studio .NET is closed.
2. On the 'Start' menu, click 'Run'. Type 'Regedit' and click 'OK'.
The Registry Editor appears.
3. Navigate to the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Crystal Decisions\Crystal
Reports\VSNET\Keycodes\CR NET
4. Right-click on the '(Default)' key and select 'Modify'.
5. Copy the entire keycode below and paste it into the 'Value Data:'
field overwriting the existing value. Click 'OK'
(start copying at the "1" and stop copying at the "6")
