Problem linking with Crystal Reports and MS VC++ 6.0 Professional
You're missing to link atleast one more .lib (could be more). You need to
find the names of libs (I've not done CR + VC++) and list only names of libs
in Project | Settings....Link tab, General Category, Object/library modules
box.
Hope this helps,
Ganesh
