It doesn't work that way... you NEED CR to print out CR reports. What is the problem that they don't want CR? It's not like it needs to be the full version of CR. Simply include the CR merge module into the installation and it'll install along with your program.

Wait a minute ... what do you mean when you say "without using Crystal reports" ???
Well, you don't have to install CR as stand-alone program but rather as TechGnome explained you need to include/merge CR modules to your setup project and that's all.
Btw, i was also wondering how it's possible that client telling you how to code and what you suppose to do about the reports?
Really bad for you if you have sucha clients (i am so sorry)
