Unsure about vs2005, but in vs2003, you need to include the assemblies in the setup/deployment package. When you do this, you have to enter the license key you got when you registered crystal reports. This get built into the package. When the package is installed on another pc, all the relevant files for CR are installed aswell. Check out http://www.crystaldescisions.com There's some knowledgebase stuff in the support section explaining how to do it. Andy

hi there, the link below might be useful for u: http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/MCEnhancedListBoxControl.asp << >>

dont cross-post pls refer the answer one in asp.net board << >>

Yes, you're right. With the ASP.NET 2.0 treeview control, you only need to do few things to make it work in the way you want. And the treeview control is just one of examples of using the client callback. The callback can help the web developer easily communicate with the server side without reloading the entire web page. Its behaviour is similar to some AJAX (one of the most concerned buzzword recently) libraries out there for example AJAX.NET. You can learn more about the client callback from the blog entries of a Microsoft developer: http://weblogs.asp.net/bleroy/archive/2005/04/08/397761.aspx[^] Have fun with client callback! :-D

that makes sense... thanks Christian :) Afzal Hassen

i'm trying to save the compressed files within the rar file. is there a way that i can extract the files programmatically so that i can save the uncompressed files to the temp directory in windows where i can work with the file(s). i've used winRar to extract the files but the files have no extension (i.e. .txt, .xls etc.) i have opened the files with notepad and they contain string records that i would like to process and then save in SQL srvr.. also, how do i make sure that when i want to process a file with no extension that it contains data that are of a string data type in order for me to sucessfully process the records..
