I have finished my C# Project database-sql server 2005 databse,also using crystal reports.I am done with the setup also.The setup is in debug folder. Ive copied the Setup to my flash drive.When I tried to install it on another computer, its installing .but when I executed the project, Getting One message..

Project cannot be opened.
Windows is searching for a solution to open it.

And then its automatically closing.This was my problem first.

Then I installed visual studio in another computer.Now its opening.Now the problem is with reports.I cannot open my crystal reports .

I want to implement this project in some other machines.How is this possible?

May be some supported Assemblies are missed while you generating the Setup of your project.

Check your deployment project properly, is there any thing missing..

all the references that you have in your project should be from bin directory. that way your problem may resolve.

Should the computer that I want to install the project needs visual studio and sql server??

No Need, you need to install the Frame work, make sure that your sql server connection is available for the installed machine.

You need to export .NET framework, sqlserver2005. TO do this follow my steps:
1. click on project>Project property menu
2. Select publish Tab
3. Now Click on prerequisites button
4. Now Check your framework you used.(TO know what is your framework: Click Compile tab>Advance compile option button) and SQL server 2005 also. Additionally you need to check some install supporting file like Windows Installer.
Wise you best luck.
