I have created an application includes database "access" connection and reporter module "Report Viewer " and it's working properly without bugs in my PC "equipped with Microsoft Visual Basic Studio 2010" but when I took only the following files to be installed on another PC
1-Applicationname.exe.config
2-Databasename.mdb file
3-Applicationname.exe
4-Reportname.rdlc
I found that all thing is ok except the report viewer opening as there is an error message stated that (Unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue if you click Quit,the application will close immediately.
An error ocuured creating the form.See Exception.Inner Exception for details. The error is :Could not load file or assembly
"Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms,Version=10.0.0.0,Cluture=neutral,PublicKey Token=b03f5f7f11d50a3a or one of its dependencies. The system cannet find the file specified.)
Awaiting your help. Thx

Do you have the correct version of .net framework on the target PC? And the right version of the ReportViewer redistributable files?

Hi Chill60, yes the other PCs with .net framework 4 and all application features are functioning properly on those PCs except the reporter part.
As for the report viewer files,I only took the .rdlc file

I think you might need to download the reportviewer redistributable support files e.g. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/search.aspx?q=report%20viewer%202008[^]

Did you copy the report on the same path as defined in your program? That is, do you have some hard-coded path to your report? Do you have access right to the reports folder?

Hi Sinisa, first thing, I took only the mentioned files above in my question And then , I was trying to fix the problem by taking all project folders and files to the other PC and only change the database path in the .exe.config file.
Regarding, the access rights, I have full access rights because I'm systems administrator on those PCs.

But you didn't answer if the report and the exe are in the same folder (or at same relative paths) - however you defined it in your app.

Hi Sinisa , yes the report and the exe in the same folder but they are not in the same path of my full project at the PC equipped with Microsoft Visual studio.

Try (on your computer where it works) change the references to Copy Local = True. Then copy whole bin directory - you'll get all dlls your project needs. With correct versions.

Or update references to newest version.

Or install 2010 runtime on your new computer: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6442[^]

You could also try finding:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies
in your program and copy MS report DLLs to your new computer.

If this helps, please take time to accept the solution. Thank you.
