Accessing Crystal Reports from VB

Dear Satya,
Install Cryatal Reports 8.5 after you have installed Visual Studio 6.0.Sometimes the "add" menu item does not contain the Crystal Reports link ,Cryatl Reports has been installed before Visual Studio 6.0.
After u have intalled the two software you can right click on the project explorer and add "Crystal Reports".I think this would work......Sometimes u may get error messages if u try to build a Crystal Report in the Visual Studio environment.My suggestion is that you first build the report and then add it to your project
