Copied Visual Studio 2019 Project to other PC - publish no longer working properly

Hi,

I have recently received a new laptop and will need to hand back my older laptop. I have copied a project from Visual Studio 2019 on the old PC onto the new PC. Everything works when run from the IDE (and even if I locate the .exe and run it). However, when I publish the application and install the published application, there are some functions that do not work.

How can I track down what is wrong/missing? I assume that it is to do with some DLLs/controls that have not been included in the published application.

I'm sure it will be something really obvious, but I just cannot find it.

Please help,

Pete

    Hi,

    Thought I'd let people know that this seems to be resolved.

    I suspect that it has to do with the Crystal Reports runtime DLL. I've installed this on a PC that I've downloaded the latest version of the application onto and things seem to work now.
