On my laptop I use Visual Studio 2010 and Crystal reports, but when I moved my application to another PC without Visual studio installed, my application got error:
"CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument' threw an exception".
I copied Crystal reports dll and add reference and path inside my app but I got same error.
Then I tried install Crystal reports on the PC but got error:
"you must already have visual studio 2010 installed to proceed with this installation".
How do I install Crystal reports on the PC without installing Visual Studio 2010?

download crystal report for runtime to be installed on client PC, you wont need to install crystal report and visual studio try it here for 32bit http://www.4shared.com/rar/3MOtCA7w/crforvs_redist_install_32bit_1.html, and look for other site if it is 64 bit.
filename for 32 bit= CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_2.msi; for 64 bit CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_2.msi, that solved my problem when deploying my applicatyion to client pc.
