Crystal reports create report template instance error

$

I am using crystal reports RAS SDK to make changes in rpt file dynamically through code. For this I am doing a POC to check how to use report templates programmatically. There is an assembly CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.TemplateEngine which contains all the classes for report templates.

But when I am trying to create an instance of ReportTemplateEngine using code below, I am receiving an error.

Code snippet:

Dim templateEngineActual AsISCRReportTemplateEngine=NewReportTemplateEngine

This line throws an error:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was caught  
ErrorCode=-2147221164  
Message=Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {B932BBA7-8A8F-4A32-B510-C6216345BEC5}

at CrystalReportsPOC.Form1.Form1_Load(Object sender,EventArgs e)in C:\Users\saurabh.agarwal\Desktop\CrystalReportsPOC\CrystalReportsPOC\Form1.vb:line 26

Steps taken:

I checked the GAC and found two entries for CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.TemplateEngine assembly. One for MSIL and another for AMD64. After that I checked the registry entries. There was no registry entry for the CLSID in error description. I registered this assembly using regasm command but no benefit came up.

Now I can find the CLSID (shown in error) in registry and in registry it displays class value : ReportTemplateEngineClass.

But still I cannot create an instance of reportTemplateEngine. Please suggest me what I am doing wrong.

Environment details:

VisualStudio2010 SP1  Dotnet frameworrk :4.0  CPU Mode: x86  CrystalReportsVersion:2013
