I hope you can help me out here...

Really I'm confused, so far what I did was put these merge modules in this directory of the server:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules

CrystalReportsRedist2005_x86.msm
Microsoft_VC80_ATL_x86.msm
policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_ATL_x86.msm

And, I'm not sure what you mean by specifying the copy of local option as false for all DLL's relating to crystal reports.

Wow you got me thinking... I forgot to copy the web.config into the file.

I'm curious because right now many of the images are not appearing in the Crystal reports viewer. Any idea what might cause this?

I got it working!!

Copied the files from below directory to the server:

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\CrystalReportWebFormViewer3

That got the images working...

Thank you for replying... it got me on right track.

All I did wrong was forgetting to include the web.config file when uploading the web site to the server. And, needed that Crystal Report Web Form directory in the root of the IIS Server. Now it's working perfect. I'll give you points for helping!!
