Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine

[Former Member]

Hi, I have a .net web application that was created in VS2003 and I then converted it to VS2005 project. It builds in vs2005 but I get the run time error

Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, system cannot find file specified.

In the web config file it errors out when trying to add the assembly.

CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=9.2.3300.0

Anyhow do I need the MSI installer that installs the correct DLLS for that version of crystal reports? If so where do I find it?

Currently on the machine is both CR Developer, product type= full, product version = 9.2.2.693

as well as

Crystal Reports AAC60-G0CSA4B-V7000AY

Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005.

thanks! Paul.
