    @Sage100UrgentSupportNeeded Does anyone know if you can install the workstation client from a prior version without have the complete copy of MAS installed???? It seems that Sage/Sap no longer installs the run time version of Crystal with v2013. This prevents you from launching a Crystal report via a script. Alnoor provides a script as part of his scripting class (HIGHLY recommended BTW) that generated a Crystal report at the push of a button in MAS. Works fine when run on a workstation that had a prior version of MAS installed, but it fails saying ""Cannot create object crystalruntime.application"" when run on a workstation with ONLY v2013 installed. We did some research and it seems SAP has pulled VBS runtime support on its latest versions. One suggestion was to go back and install a basic 4.50 MAS (minimum modules) and run wksetup, hoping that it would install the runtime module Below is a link on Sage city that discusses the issue also. For those of you stymied from accessing Sage City, I've attached a PDF copy. http://community.sagemas.com/t5/Personalization-Customization/crystal-report-2011-no-longer-provides-runtime-component-Can-t/td-p/92616 Extremely frustrating that at the same time Sage is cutting back on making anything better, Sage/SAP are actually making things worse but taking away valuable tools that were used to mitigate the backslide.

    What's the worst thing that can happen? If it were me, I'd give it a go.......you can always un-install. It's broken now, right? Can it get more broken? Parting words :)

    I am unclear exactly where I am headed right now; I am working w a career counselor. I will miss you @JeffSchwenk and @AlnoorCassim the most of all!! I have been lied to by clients (and other resellers professing to be friends) for the last time. No more writing off many, many hours only to have it bite me in the butt!! Nice guys do finish last in this business.......I am tired of being last! If not for 90Minds and the extraordinary members, I honestly believe I would have left as many as 2 years ago. You guys are, by far, the best and the brightest! I was honored to be associated with you and always will hold you all in a special place in my heart :-) Happy Holidays to all and take good care of yourselves.......
