Hi all,
I just upgraded a CR2008 install to SP0, which was supposed to provide
integration with VS 2008. Now, when I load an existing project that has some
Crystal Report objects in it, I get a prompt stating that the Windows Forms
components for the toolbox failed to load properly. I also get the following
in the Event logs:

These events occur in the reverse order in which I listed them. Any
suggestions? I've tried repair/reinstall of VS2008, but still have the
problem.

Hello John,

It seems your Crystal Reports 2008 failed on install. Installer cannot find
some of the source files.
Have you tried to download CR 2008 sp0 from BusinessObjects website, then
repair/reinstall it again?

Hope this helsp.
Best regards,
Wen Yuan
