Author Crystal Reports Error

I have packaged up a VB.NET 2003 windows application that includes a number
of Crystal Reports. The reports work fine on my development machine but when
I install the package using the Windows installer the reports do not run. I
get the following error message: "cannot find KeycodeV2.DLL or invalid
keycode"

Can somebody please advise me if I need to install some other Crystal
Reports runtime files

Thanks

The crystal viewer uses a couple of dll's which are installed on your development machine. They are part of CR for VS.NET but not of the .NET framework.
If there is no vs.net installed on the webserver these files will be missing on the server. A deployment project in VS.NET will not see the dependencies and will not include them in the setup.
What worked for me (destilled out of the loads of CR docs) was creating a setup project with a couple of merge modules

Crystal_Database_Access2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003_enu.msm
Crystal_Managed2003.msm
Crystal_regwiz2003.msm
VC_User_CRT71_RTL_X86_---.msm (used for reports based on ADO.NET)
VC_User_STL71_RTL_X86_---.msm (used for reports based on ADO.NET)

The regwiz module has an License key property, here you enter the Crystal license key found in the help about of VS.NET. It will read something like AAP50-GS00000-U7000RN.

I have .NET 2002, but I couldn't find those VC_User*.msm files anywhere on my machine. Is there somewhere they can be downloaded?

Is there a way to edit a merge module? I need to replace a .DLL file in Crystal_Managed2003.msm
