CrystalReports XI Release 2 Distribution, License question

108 Views

I am currently a customer and use CrystalReprots XI Release 2.

We develop reports and then distribute these reports as embedded reports part of our VisualStudion 2005 C# solution package for end users to execute/view from our application.

Our application is a desktop application.

We package "CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm" part of out setup package to distribute the runtime needed to view these reports.

I have two questions in this regard

1)Licensing- I assume we don't need any addl license to distribute this runtime to our end users. The license key we have is what we use on the merge module during packaging/setup.

Pls confirm

2)Also if we want to use an MSI rather than MSM as run time redistributable where do we get the download file from? I didn't see a separate redistributabkle MSI download for CRystal reports XI release 2. Can we use "Crystal reports XI release 2 Server install" MSI as redistributable to end users? i.e (crxir2sp5_server_install.zip). Kidnly Clarify
