Dear Brother

You try this solution....when you create the rpt in vs2003, you have placed some grand total or

summary total of field which have non-numeric datatype, like you have placed the max of vendor name

field or count of such as formula field which have no formula defined.

first remove them and try to create them with different logic....

if you not found then try this trick, drop all summary totals, grand total or group totals and then re-create

them in vs 2005, you problem will be solved i hope.

Hi,

I think the installers of the high version of Visual Studio change the Crystal Reports components used by Visual Studio 2003.

We can try to reinstall it from your Visual Studio 2003 CDs.

You can refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/193336.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Good morning everybody,

First I want to warn that English is not my maternal language, so I hope that I will make myself clear.

I have an application developped in VB.NET 2003 which includes many different designed with Crystal Reports 10.

This summer, I receive a new computer which has VB.NET 2003, VB.NET 2005 and VB.NET 2008 installed on.

Since then, when I want to add a new report to my project I get this error message :

""Path and name of my report".rpt(1): Custom tool error: "Code generator 'ReportCodeGenerator' failed. Exception stack = System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xC0100006): ?
   at CrystalKeyCodeLib.KeyDecoderClass.ReadFromFile(String szFile)
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.=()
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.InternalInit()
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument..ctor()
   at CrystalDecisions.VSShell.CodeGen.ReportClassWriter..ctor(String filePath)
   at CrystalDecisions.VSShell.CodeGen.ReportCodeGenerator.GenerateCode(String inputFileName, String inputFileContent)"

I have searched for in many web site and it seems that many people got this kind of errors .... but ... even if I tried some tricks that I read, it still doesn't work.

Is there a Crystal version problem or not ? Maybe someone here would have the miracle solution ? I hope so.

Thank you !
