Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=12.0.2000

I downloaded the trial version of CR 2008 in order to test an update of a report from Crystal 10. I would also add that I am using CR 2008 embedded in Visual Studio .Net 2005. I was able to successfully upgrade the report and run it without issue from the .Net debugger. However when I deploy the report to the users machine when it attempts to display the report I get the following error:

Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=692fbea5521e1304' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot fined the file specified.

Since I was able to successfully deploy the report with CR 10, my question is do I need to purchase a version of CR 2008 in order to deploy? I just want to make sure that this is indeed the issue prior to making the purchase. If that is not the case can you please point me to proper deployment procedures for 2008, perhaps there is something I am missing.

Thanks much for your assistance,

Mike
