Simple answer - you can't. The internal structure of the .rpt file changed dramatically when Crystal 9 was released. Reports updated in Crystal 2016 will have this new format which the 8.5 version of the SDK will not work with.\\nSo, you'll need to either upgrade your entire application to .NET or create a new web application or service in VB.NET that can be called by your existing application to view reports. You can find information and downloads for the .NET SDK here: +Reports%2C+Developer+for+Visual+Studio+Downloads \\nThere are some tricks to getting the reports to upgrade correctly. If a report only uses tables that are linked together in the Database Explorer and does NOT have any manual changes to the SQL, you'll just have to open it in 2016 and save it. However, if ANY changes have been made to the SQL - even just changing the table owner/schema - you'll have to recreate the report from scratch using a "Command" (SQL Select Statement). Modifying the SQL created by Crystal is no longer allowed and my experience doing this is that even though it looks like the links between the tables are still there, you'll get a cartesian join because Crystal won't be able to "see" them. For more information about using commands, see my blog here: -practices-when-using-commands-with-crystal-reports/.\\n-Dell\",\"author\":\"username\":\"dell.stinnett-christy\",\"displayName\":\"Dell Stinnett-Christy\",\"groupIcons\":[\"name\":\"champion\",\"title\":\"This user is an SAP Champion\",\"priority\":14,\"name\":\"moderator\",\"title\":\"This user is an SAP Moderator\",\"priority\":20],\"suspended\":false,\"isCurrentUser\":false,\"id\":12958446,\"posted\":1579629011000,\"votes\":0,\"isAccepted\":false,\"isLocked\":false,\"userVoted\":\"\",\"relations\":\"canCancelAccept\":false,\"canUnlock\":false,\"canUseDelete\":false,\"canVoteDownOrCancel\":false,\"canLock\":false,\"canAccept\":false,\"type\":\"answer\",\"canVoteUpOrCancel\":false,\"isCurrentUserAuthor\":false,\"attachments\":[]}]"), answerForm: formAction: "/answers/12958282/post.json", textareaName: "body", textareaErrors: "", isAttachmentsEnabled: true, answerEditorialGuideline: title: "Before answering", content: "You should only submit an answer when you are proposing a solution to the poster\'s problem.

MSPDOX40.DLL and MSXBSE40.DLL, I check my hard disk and this files doesn't exist. I also generate a search for this files under cystal report site and the result was 0 files.Do you know anything about this two files.

RE: crystal Report 8.5 & VB6 petermeachem (Programmer)10 Apr 02 14:51Msxbse40 appears to be a dbase file driver and MSPDOX40 as Paradox driver. I'm not sure why you would need these, but if you look on google you will find plenty of references, such as !OpenDocument Peter Meachempeter@accuflight.com RE: crystal Report 8.5 & VB6 jitendra (Programmer)26 Apr 02 04:09I Have Designed the Crystal Report ,But When i m trying to Pass Parameter Using Visual Basic Im not able to do thatLike txFormula = "Employees.LastName = 'King'" CrystalReport1.ReplaceSelectionFormula txtFormulaHow can I define the Selection criteria..?
