Help: VB6 Crashes after adding Crystal Report 6.0 Designer report
Hello,
I have exactly the same software configuration -- and the same problem.
However, sometimes I can select a report style and data source. I need to
select an OLE DB source (Oracle 7.3). Sometimes I even get to select Oracle
tables and fields for the report (so I know it connects to the database).
But when ever I click "Finish" to close the report wizard, VB 6 blows up.
Since Crystal Reports 6.0 ships with VS 6, I assume this behaviour is
intended to make me upgrade to CR 7.0.
Anyone else have a work around? Will CR 7.0 cure everything?
