I think you are trying to load a unmanaged version of Crystal Report dll in to managed (C#) project. I believe you can get .Net version of crystal report extensions. Please check that.

You cannot add a unmanaged (C++ Dll) into your Managed (C#) project.

Hi,

You are doing the right way to add the reference library. if you are using DLL of the windows code then you should use DLLImport instead of adding reference.

Lest us know if it is not working, also post the error message if any.

Best luck,

Solution 3

If you are using third party dll then you need to register that dll first.
