I'm pretty new to developing crystal reports and have run into a snag.  I created a report and it runs fine on my PC I then loaded it to a server and I get the following error:

Load report failed.: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): The system cannot find the file specified.   at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc.ReportClientDocumentClass.Open(Object& DocumentPath, Int32 Options)   at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportClientDocumentWrapper.Open(Object& DocumentPath, Int32 Options)   at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportClientDocumentWrapper.EnsureDocumentIsOpened() :
 
My guess is that the applicaiton is trying to call this report by a name other than what I specified initally so it can't find it.  It's in the proper folder but I can't be sure why this error is occuring.  If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
 
Thanks,

Make sure that the user that CR is impersonating has permmissions to access files in that folder. That is a common problem when switching to a production box which typically has tighter security than your dev box.

if I check this in right click "set datasource location" the user there is the admin so that would be ok unless I should check elsewhere.

No, this is a file permission thing, not database. If you are running from a website then check the login that the website is impersonating. If running it from Windows, then the user who is logged in needs permission.

I ended up figuring out the problem.  I was using ODBC which was fine on the desktop but the application I loaded it into only uses OLE so once I changed my connections it was all set. 

Thanks for your help.
