Hi,

We are working on a CMS project, uses VB 6.0 with reports created in Crystal Report 8.5. We are accessing data from remote server.

So, to install the CMS system, we created a package in VB, installed it on different systems on client side.

On few systems, VB CMS working well but when we tried to open Crystal Reports, always showing the message -
'Run-time error '20532': Cannot find database DLL.' and i am not able to open any of the Report to view.

I saw this problem before, so i already took precaution and added all DLL files need for the execution of Crystal Report. Even though it is showing the same error message. I search on internet, came accross the different articles suggesting me to add different DLL files, but i already added them to the package. Pleaseeee, suggest me something that will work and get me out of this biggest trouble of my life.

Apart from this, on few systems, i am not able to connect to the remote database, the database is on remote server, where my web site is and i am trying to connect from client office. It is saying
'[Microsoft ODBC SQLServer Driver][DBNETLIB]SQLServer does not exist or access denied.'
I checked all known things but yet not able to solve it. I feel strange that when i am conncting to remote server from my system, i have to do nothing (by the way, my system is development system) but on client system, its not. Please have a look at the problem.

Thanks and Regards,
Anup :(

Hi Anup,

I am also facing the same problem. While installing VB Module in client system, it says cant intall "msvcp60.dll" since it is in use by OS. I ignored the err msg and continue to install. but crystal report is not working and says "Runtime error 20532. Can't find Database dll".

I cant even re-register the msvcp60.dll.

pl help. thnx in advance

This is because you are not using Crystal Report 8.5 ActiveX Designer RunTime Library (craxdrt.dll)

Check out the complete solution here.

Crystal Report (8.5) is not working on win7/windows 2008 64 bit system

My application is a vb application and I am using Crystal report 8.5. It is working fine on 32 bit system and 64 bit system of Windows 2003 server. When I run the same application either on win7 64 bit or on 2008 64 bit, report does not open.
I am using vb script to access the database.
Part of the code written in the VB script file is as follows:
Dim objrsRecordSet 'As RecordSet
Dim strSQL 'As String

'**** Open Database Connection using the parameters passed from the main program
Set dbConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
dbConnection.ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=" & mstrServer & ";uid=" & mstrUserName _
& ";pwd=" & mstrPassword & ";Database=" & mstrDatabase & ";"

dbConnection.Open
dbConnection.CommandTimeout = 200

dbConnection.Properties("Enable Fastload").Value = True




Basically we have two visual basic projects developed in VB 6.0 language: let’s say
1. Diapp (we consume the report.dll in this application, in order to generating the reports)
2. Adacrystalapp (which is used for making the report.dll)


Diapp application generating the reports on windows-XP(32 bit machines) without any problems but when I run the same application on 64 bit machines(win7/Vista…etc) report is not generating.
If I run the both applications (Diapp, Adacrystalapp) in debug mode then reports are generating on 64 bit machines (win7/vista) also without any problems.



Please help me out with this issue, i will appreciate for your response.
