Maybe you can try specifying the path of the report as relative to where your application is?

Depending on where your report is stored relative to your app's .EXE file, you might want to start with something like this:

Dim appPath As String = Application.StartupPath
Dim reportPath As String = Path.Combine(appPath, "somereport.rpt")

' Load your report from the path in "reportPath".
