Hi amshan,

Use Application.StartupPath + "\\" + "ReportName.Rpt".

Regards.

Copy ReportName.Rpt into your Project. After that right click->Properties->Copy to Output Directory->Copy always

When you setup or copy project to other location, please include/copy all in Bin\Debug or in Bin folder.

Yup, The problem is occur because you set a defined path and when application run on client application it move for this defined path which is not as same as you defined then.
To overcome the problem you should placed your Crystalreport file in your ApplicationStarup path which is inside bin\Debug of your application and have to set path as

Application.StartupPath +"\\"+"ReportName.Rpt"
