Hello, I want to upgrade the crystal report software in my project, I have a question, are there any differences between the following dll versions other than .net framework compatibility?
13.0.2000
13.0.3500
13.0.4000
My project .net version is 4.0
Why should I use 13.0.4000 different from other versions?
The versions in your post are the assembly versions, not the SDK versions. As you've noted, they reflect which version of the .NET framework is required for the SDK to work. They don't reflect which specific service pack is installed.
There are some differences that were introduced with SP21. See the Crystal for VS wiki notes around SP21 to see what the differences are. Also, there is information in the wiki about what has been fixed with each SP.
SAP only supports the most current SP of the SDK, although you can download the VS integration and the Runtime installs for a few versions back from a link in the wiki.
I highly recommend using whatever is the latest version when you start your upgrade (currently SP29). It will work with newer browsers (if this is a web app) and newer versions of Windows where the older versions won't - especially the .NET 2.0 versions. Also, MS is phasing out older versions of .NET, so you want to use the latest version that the SDK is able to work with.

Thank you for your answer. Can I seamlessly view a report I created in SAP Crystal Report 2020 using build 13.0.2000? Without update

It depends on the database drivers you use in the report. CR 2020 will work with newer versions of database clients and also with some database types that are not compatible with the older version of the SDK. So, it will be a bit of trial and error to make sure your configuration works.
