Is it possible to create a 32 bit Crystal Report from a 64 bit application?

[Former Member]

We installed Crystal Reports XI Release 2 on a Windows 2012 Datacenter OS just until we can get our application recoded to use another method.   Crystal Reports is a 32 bit application.  It works fine on the server when I go into it directly.  However, when called from Lotus Domino through an agent, we receive "208 Cannot Create Automation Object".  Domino is 9.0.1 and 64 bit.

The problem occurs here:

Public Const REPORT_OBJECT = "CrystalRuntime.Application"

Set obj_Crystal = CreateObject(REPORT_OBJECT)

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Robyn,

No, CR XI R2 is a 32 bit application as well as the SDK components.

The RDC, which you are using is no longer available in CR 2008 and above. Only .NET components SDK is now for use in an application.

Only option is to run Lotus in 32 bit mode, if that is possible or if Domino can access .NET Assemblies you can use CR .NET SDK from this link, it has a 64 bit MSI:
