For weeks and weeks, this has been an issue. After completing coding some business concept modules using Vb.Net it came to a point where printing a report became necessary. I downloaded Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 37 installation package and CR Runtime MSI x64. Installed the package as Administrator. Installed run time too with VS 2022 closed. Open VS 2022 - no Crystal Report viewer on toolbox. Add item (choose item), navigate to
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP Business Objects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP Business Objects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64. Added the following libraries:
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.dll
CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll
CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.dll
Do I need to configure legacy issues if my project settings are Cpu x64 and .NET 8.0. Component add - Crystal Reports viewer - added but disabled? This has been a frustration bomb. Any savior out there?
Followed procedures described across web spheres and still cannot have Crystal Reports viewer component in the VS 2022 toolbox

Crystal for Visual Studio does not support .NET Core -- only .NET Classic. So the highest you can go now is .NET 4.81.
It is very true. I had to downgrade to visual studio 2015 and work with 4.5.2 framework. Viewer added easily. I followed advise on stackoverflow to copy .vb, designer and resx into my current project (2015), added the items, excluded from project and added only the .vb form file. All controls appeared correctly. It is advisable to approach that if a control is not dependent on a reference library.
