How to integrate SAP Crystal Reports in Visual Studio 2017

crystal-reportsvisual-studio-2017

Is it possible to use the report designer in the current release of Visual Studio 2017?

The SAP crystal report wiki for visual studio integration only states: "RC build currently not supported – Tested opening existing app and it works".

I have installed the latest developer SDK (Support Pack 19 v.13.0.19.2312), but when I try to open an existing report (.rpt), i got the following message:

There is no editor available for 'C:…\Report.rpt'.

Make sure the application for the file type (.rpt) is installed.

By the time of asking this question I had installed SP19 on my machine. The current version which should resolve all my issues is SP22, which was released at 2018/01/11. All necessary information and download links are still available in the SAP crystal report wiki.


EDIT (2019/03/20)

Thanks to @ANewGuyInTown: The current version is 13.0.24.
