Reg:Could not load file or assembly 'crdb_adoplus, Version=9.2.3300.0'

Question

Hi
Am getting below error while setting the datasource to the report using craxddrt9.dll.My main task is to export the crystal report to text file.
{"Could not load file or assembly 'crdb_adoplus, Version=9.2.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304' or one of its dependencies. Strong name validation failed. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8013141A)":"crdb_adoplus, Version=9.2.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"}
Can anyone help me.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks

There are multiple reasons why this isnt working:
CR9 was never designed to work with VS.NET 2008
The craxddrt is not meant to work in .NET and there are quite a few issues with using it.
You need special licensing to use the craxddrt.
You need to move to CR 2008 along with VS.NET 2008 and you can export to text using the appropriate CR .NET code.
Here is a code snippet showing this:
++++++++++++++++++++++
' First we must create a new instance of the diskfiledestinationoptions class and
' set variable called crExportOptions to the exportoptions class of the reportdocument.
crDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
crExportOptions = crReportDocument.ExportOptions
'Export to TXT.
'append a filename to the export path and set this file as the filename property for
'the DestinationOptions class
crDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = "c:\<yourdesinationpath>\TextFormat.txt"
'set the required report ExportOptions properties
With crReportDocument.ExportOptions
     .ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
     .ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Text
     .DestinationOptions = crDiskFileDestinationOptions
End With
