I have looked at the discussions on this topic here and searched documentation but am not finding what I need. I have a vb 2008 windows application using cr2008 for .net. I wish to upgrade the project and all the many reports to vb. 2010 using cr 2010.
Is there documentation on the steps for doing this. For example
1. do I first run the vb upgrade program to upgrade my vb.net 2008 project (which includes the reports of course) to vb 2010.
2. I am presuming that this does not convert the reports.
3. How do I convert these 2008 cr reports to using the cr 2010 for .net and will this process also install the cr 2010 for the future reports I will be creating with this upgraded project.
I have already installed cr2010 on new vb 2010 projects but not sure what to do in an upgrade.
I read some of the posts saying they were using cr 2008 in upgraded vb 2010 projects. Would this be the result only of upgrading using the visual studio upgrade process?
That is not what I wish to do. I want to be able to run cr 2010 and have all the reports I have upgraded use cr 2010 .
Currently all the CR reports in vb 2008 are created by using the WriteXmlSchema() to create an xsd file.
For example mydataset.WriteXmlSchema("c:/windows/temp/paypos.xsd")
The data is created by sql stored procedures. I use the cr wizard to create the reports and they are accessed via the cr viewer.
So my question is what steps do I need either before or after using the upgrade program in visual studio to upgrade the project. Also, will all my xsd files still work properly once this process is finished. Any link to documentation if exists (or your detailed instructions) would be appreciated.
Thanks.
