See the Wiki for downloads and deployments here:

You need to install the MSI package, you can't just include the dll's in your project

See the Blog for updating your project also

Hello Williams,

What i understood you reply is once I installed all MSI packages in my local development server and when i am trying to create (exe) to run this report and PDF works in my all client machines you said exclude locall dlls and Install MSI packages in all my client machines to run , execute this report , PDF .

Is that my understanding correct ?

Thanks

Anand.

Wrong, only install the EXE on your Development PC, MSI packages are for deployment only.

Hello Williams.

Thanks for your reply.

My only question now when i am generating EXE in my development pc is it necessary to exclude(n't include) all .dlls while creating EXE?

Please confirm.
