Thanks for your reply. But I still need to install msm package in the client machine.
In Visual basic 6 there is a built in report named Data report. If I want to install the data report in the client machine I just need to register two dlls in the client machine. So can I get the dlls to register in the client machine just to run the crystal report same as in the case of data report, instead of running the package if possible
