 I am converting VB6 project to VB net. In the original program there are dsr reports created with data reports in VB6.
 
I tried creating a crystal report and using the option of using an existing report and calling one of these dsr reports. However I get an error message and it tells me to look in a log file.
 
When I look in the log file it says that it cant understand the data enviroment designer. It will load the crystal report but I have to create the report from scratch. Create my own data connection, add all the fields, labels etc.
 
Is there any way  to load one of these dsr files into crystal reports without having to do everything from scratch. We have numerous reports that have to be recreated for VB net which uses crystal reports instead of data reports. Confused
