Crystal XI Developers Edition 11.0.0.1282 vs. Crystal XI R2

52 Views

I apologize in advance for my lack of tech-savvy lingo, I'm still in the learning process. We currently write our reports using Crystal XI developers edition 11.0.0.1282. We are in the process of converting our application to a web application written in Java. Our reports run fine in this environment. However, we will continue to have client-server customers that use our application. One customer in particular has Crystal Reports XI R2 .Net 3.0 Runtime (11_01_2007), msi. When they run our reports it destroys their office environment. What I need to know is if we upgrade to Crystal XI R2 for the runtime will it be backward compatible for all of the reports written using Crystal XI? I've been asked to find out "what pieces are needed to put in client server or java application and distribute". Are there any specific licensing or general requirements needed? What version does the runtime come from? Again I apologize if I'm not making any sense. This is what I know (admittedly, not much) to get started with this post. I'm blindly feeling my way along here. We run on a SQL DB.
