First of all, Crystal Reports XI is not compatible with 2005, you need to upgrade to XI release 2 (Free upgrade) which is available here:http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/compatibility_vs2005.asp?ExtCmp=null

Secondly, I believe Visual Web Developer 2005 is similar to Visual Studio 2005 express which is not capable of adding Crystal Reports to. You need at least the standard edition of Visual Studio for Crystal Reports to integrate into the IDE.
