I'm getting "Public Database Not Found" when I try to run a Crystal Report on a deployed VB package. I went to Seagate's website, found the bug and the proposed solutions, tried them all out, and still have the problem. Someone here earlier suggested adding P2SOLEDB.DLL to my deployment package, which I did. Still have the problem.

My VB6 program is using MS Access 2000 DB and using Crystal Reports 8.0.0.393. This error is occurring on both Windows NT 4.0 and Windows ME machines.

Anybody have any ideas how to fix this problem?

TIA
Dave

I discovered the problem. For everyone else's benefit, here's the solution:

To run Crystal Reports 8 with Access 2000 (not sure if you need it for other versions of Access) the deployment package needs to have P2BDAO.DLL included (which it doesn't by default).
