Publish Crystal Report?

[graced]

Hi,

I need your help. I'm trying to publish my application using the Publish tab from the Solution Explorer > Properties.. It produced the exe file and everything, and when i tried to install it in another PC, the error shows:

The type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument' threw an exception.

I was wondering how i could include in the Publish all the necessary files for the Crystal Report? So that if I install it in another PC, only my Setup.exe is needed and no other external installation will be needed.

Thank you!

Application was developed using
Visual Studio 2005 and .Net 2.0 Framework

Regards,
Grace

[forever10]

actually my winapp should open in a web server. like for instance, when i click the link in my web server(aspx), my winapp will open. so in order to do that, i have to publish it in an online basis. but when I open it on our intranet..my add, update, search button works well but on my print button there's an error.. attach here is the said error.. please do help me..

then this is the details..

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

[thirteentwenty]

for those who didn't get this resolved, I just went through the same thing and have documented what I did to resolve it in this thread... check the second to the last post. Even though my error wasn't a COM error, the process should work.
