Hi Aken H

Could you please let me know what exactly happen after installing crystal report.

When you are going to create first crystel report after installing crystal report then, is again download crystal report message display or any other message is displayed?

If again download crystal report message displayed or like this message then that means crystal report application did not install successfully.

Tell me what message displayed when you again try to add crystal report in project.

Thanks.
