The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual Basic Standard Edition for Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Visual Basic Professional Edition for Windows 3.0
This article was previously published under Q110721 SUMMARY
You cannot distribute the CRW.EXE file to other users. CRW.EXE is the
Crystal report-designer environment for making custom reports.
To distribute custom reports that you made using CRW.EXE, add a Crystal
Custom Control to your program. You can attach your custom report to the
Crystal Custom Control by using the ReportFileName property. Visual Basic
can compile that program into an executable .EXE file. If you want to
distribute that program to other people who do not have Visual Basic
version 3.0 installed, you need to include additional files listed in the
More Information section below.
For an example showing how to use the Crystal Custom Control, run the
CRVBXSAM.MAK sample project located in the Report directory in Visual
Basic.
