Crystal Reports 8.5 does not work on Vista & Windows7

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a program written in VB6 and we are using Crystal Reports 8.5. The reports are fine on Windows XP but are not running on Vista and Windows 7. I found many people over the internet have this issue but none of them have gotten any resolution.

Any solution?

Thanks,

Nadeem

Thanks Shweta,

I knew this before but I was looking for a solution which can make our existing version 8.5 workable in Vista and Windows 7. But I guess there's nothing and we have to go for newer version.

Cheers,
