I am using ASP.NET/C# in Visual Studio 2008.I was trying to use Crystal Reports in my project.When I add Crystal Report.I can see CrystalReport1.rpt in my project but when I click on it.
Here is the image of my problem.
Can anybody help me out with this.I am not able to do anything further.
Do I need to re-install Crystal Report?
Any Links to install it?
Thanks.
Looks like the .rpt file extension is not connected to the designer in VS. My guess is you need to re-install Crystal Reports.
You have to install/reinstall CrystalReports for Visual Studio
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio is the custom version of Crystal
Reports that is available as part of the default installation in most
versions of Microsoft Visual Studio

In Visual Studio click Help\About Visual Studio to find all installed components.
If it's not installed use original Visual Studio installer.

Reporting template got missed in visual studio 2017, I installed crystal report still version 13_0_18, Existing reports are working

Reporting template in visual studio 2017. when am trying to open any
.rpt file it is showing like binary form, Its not opening in Crystal
report editing window.
I had a project in VS2008. It was deployed without a problem. However now I need to make some changes and upgraded that project to VS2012 (because VS2008 is not working).
In that project I have a Crystal report, but I am not able to open that in VS2012. When I open the report, all I see is numbers and letters.
Also tried deploying it on client machine; it just shows the report viewer and Crystal report is missing.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this, or do I need to build whole crystal report from scratch?
SAP updates their drivers from time-to-time, to work with newer versions of Visual Studio.
Here is their landing page, with the current driver and a list of all older drivers:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
Here's a direct link to the latest installation package (SP9) for the Visual Studio IDE:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio
I'd close Visual Studio while installing the driver, but you shouldn't need to reboot afterwards.
Make sure you install the "install executable" (exe) file, not one of the msi files. That won't integrate Crystal into VS, as they mention on that page:
Please note: To integrate "SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio" into VS 2010 or 2012 (SP 7 and higher) or VS 2013 (SP 9 or higher), you must run the Install Executable. Running the MSI will not fully integrate Crystal Reports into VS. MSI files by definition are for runtime distribution only.
I am using Visual Studio 2010, I've installed Crystal Reports, but on my form, I cannot find the Crystal Reports Viewer in the toolbox. Is there something special I need to install or activate in Visual Studio in order to have access to that?
Hi take a look at this post here i think it will help you.

Change your .net version in project settings to not use the "Client Profile" version of .net
I have already installed Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 13.0.5 on my machine, but I do not see an option for me to add a new Crystal Report to my project in Visual Studio 2012. What step am I missing? The only question I see on SO to address this suggests I have to uninstall and reinstall VS2012; this does not seem like the right answer to me.
I ended up updating VS, and the Crystal Report object was available again.
I have installed Visual Studio 2010,it doesn't include crystal Reports,so i downloaded SAP Crystal Report externally from MSDN and installed SAP Crystal Reports
When i open Visual Studio 2010 i am unable to design existing .RPT files, but when i run an application existing Reports opens
so what can be reason that i cant design .rpt files?
You probably need to install Crystal Reports For Visual Studio 2010 on your developer machine as well as Runtime Engine.
There are actually two versions of Crystal Reports provided :
- Crystal Reports Redistribution Version.
- Crystal Reports For Visual Studio.
Be sure that you have downloaded the right one.
If the problem insists try to uninstall CR and clean registry and all stuff and then re-install again.
Hope it helps
