@Raghavendra Hullur - I did find that and tried it but was unsuccessful.  Thanks though.

@mlmcc - The project was originally VS2008 with CR 2008.  I was not able to modify the reports so I upgraded the project to VS2012 and CR 13.  I created a new Crystal Report Viewer and passed the dataset to my new form and it is displaying but can't reuse the original form.  

I can complain about everything wrong with this project but I'll say i'm just trying to get it to work.  So much needs to be fixed.
Which SP level did you install?

Don't think upgraded to a service pack. I installed from NuGet.  

I created a new CrystalReportViewer form and the report is opening in the new form.
I found the issue.  The original developer created a bunch of Crystal Reports Viewers and tried to bind the report with the viewer.  The report, after upgrading, had issues resolving the report.  I removed the report from the viewer.  It is passed programatically.  Removing the report from the viewer solved the problem.
