Visual Basic 6 with Crystal Reports on Windows 10
I wonder if I can get some help migrating a VB6 project with Crystal 8.0/8.5? These are windows' 10 PCs.
The reports are working in the development machine but the production machine keeps having problems with an 20599 error.
I checked the ODBC 32bit connection and that is connecting fine.

What database are you connecting to?

Found the problem,
ODBC connections with the development machine use different parameters versus the production for some reason, and so I updated the ODBC connection and it works now.
Thanks for the help with the debugging code.

Thanks for all the help and the quick response.
Is it the RDC or the OCX?
Crystal does use 2 virtual folders for building the reports. I forget which they are.
Have you tried using a local admin account to run the application and the reports?
You are trying to use 20 year-old technology. CR 8 was built with Windows 95/97 in mind
.
It may be necessary to upgrade from CR8 and VB6 to VB.Net and CR for Visual Studio.
