Adding a reference to the Crystal Data Source Type Library

If this is the first time you are using the Crystal Data Source type library, you may need to tell Visual Basic where the type library is located before you can add a reference.

  1. From the Project menu, choose References.

    The References dialog box appears.

  2. Scroll through the Available References list to locate the CRDataSource 1.0 Type Library. If you find the reference, skip to step 6. Otherwise, continue with the next step.
  3. In the References dialog box, click the Browse button to locate the type library file.

    The Add Reference dialog box appears.

  4. Locate the CRSOURCE.TLB type library file in the same directory that you installed Crystal Reports. If you accepted the default directory when you installed the product, this directory will be C:\Program Files\Seagate Software\Crystal Reports.
  5. Select CRSOURCE.TLB, and click Open. CRDataSource 1.0 Type Library will now appear in the Available References list in the References dialog box.
  6. Place a check mark in the check box next to CRDataSource 1.0 Type Library if one does not appear already.
  7. Click OK to add the reference to your project.
