Instal of VB6 / Crystal Reports XI R2 (SP3) Not Working -

Here's the deal... I have both Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (Service Pack 3) & Crystal Reports 2008 installed on my laptop. Both are the stand-alone Crystal Reports software.

I have a VB6 application that calls 20-or-so Crystal Reports files & can either display them within the VB6 app. (using the crviewer control placed on one of the VB6 forms), or they can of course be sent directly to a printer.

The VB6 app. is using the various Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (Service Pack 3) references/components. (While I thinking about it, I don't even believe you can use Crystal Reports 2008 within VB6, as I don't think Crystal Reports 2008 has any sort of support for usage within VB6, but I could be wrong.)

I've tried using both the Package & Deployment Wizard & Indigo Rose Setup Factory 8 to make the installation package in order to get the required files over to a friend's PC so that this app. will run on his laptop, but I'm having no luck generating any of the Crystal Report files on his machine.

The underlying database is SQL Server 2005 & that's all working fine.

When I try to preview any of the Crystal Report files, I get the "Run Time Error 429 - ActiveX component can't create object" message.

I get a few installation-related errors displayed as well on my friend's laptop when I'm running the installation EXE... mostly dealing w/a few DLL files that it states it couldn't find or couldn't register or whatever. I've subsequently found and included those various DLLs in revised installation packages and reinstalled the software on my friend's laptop & those msgs. cease, or in some cases, I've just manually registered the files myself on his laptop and all seems to be fine there afterwards.

I'm deploying the 4 Crystal Reports 11.5 merge modules w/in the installation... downloaded those 4 MSM files from the www.businessobjects.com site.

I'll be glad to post additional info. if there's any piece of info. that I've left-out that might help some of you figure out what my issue(s) might be here as far as why the Crystal Reports files can't be previewed/printed.

Thanks!!
