Crystal Reports and Visual Studio Integration

Visual Studio 2008 Professional includes "Crystal Reports 2008 Basic." The Standard and Express versions of VS2008 do not include the bundled Crystal Reports. "Crystal Reports 2008 Basic" is quite different than "Crystal Reports 2008." The Basic version has the same feature set as the previous version (that was embedded into Visual Studio 2005). In fact, if you look at Crystal Reports section of the Visual Studio MSDN documentation (Development Tools and Langauges/Visual Studio/ Tools and Features/Crystal Reports), the list of "What's New" is as follows:

1. ClickOnce deployment supports the HomeSite attribute and is now available for x64 bit machines.
2. Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 supports both Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.
3. Support for the .Net 3.5 Framework.

How to distribute Crystal Viewer?

Giving your consumers immediate access to Crystal Reports Viewer XI is fast and easy. You can send the link to download the viewer to your consumer in an email or on the web page displaying the viewer. So let us say you email a sales report every week as an email attachment. In the body of that report place the link to http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/viewer/en/download.asp with some text saying something to the effect of "If you cannot view this report, follow the instructions from this link to download the viewer."
