C#

ReportDocument stu = new ReportDocument();
stu.Load("samplereport.rpt");
DataSet ds = objstudent.SelectStudent_report();
stu.SetDataSource(ds.Tables[0]);
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = stu;
crystalReportViewer1.Visible = true;
crystalReportViewer1.Enabled = true;

here it give an error as "Load report failed."..
but wen i specifying path as

Solution 1

As my knowladge, you should provide entire path to load report
here is no any shortcut method to specify path.

Solution 2

Location (path) must be pass,
and instead of passing it statically you should detect path dynamically.

C#

string rptpath="G:\\ISR\\ISR project\\phase 1\\isr\\isr\\samplereport.rpt";

e.g.

C#

path = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(
      System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase );
string rptpath=path + "\\samplereport.rpt";

Happy Coding!
:)

it is example when ever you will install application on other pc report path will not same so find it dynamically.
just check 'path' variable value by debugging
