Develop application to match current runtime

[larry_huisingh]

We have a third party application that uses Crystal Reports for their reporting. The runtime version that the application installer has installed is 13.0.30.3805. We have an application I am developing that will need to use Crystal Reports as well alongside the third party application. How do I set up my dev environment to create an executable that will run with the above specified runtime? I am using Visual Studio 2019 and I am developing for 32-bit.

So do I understand correctly that you need to install the version for Visual Studio that will match the runtime version? That makes sense, but I just hadn't read that there were versions for Visual Studio that corresponded to particular run times.

Does this mean that when I want to have my application work with a different version of the runtime I just need to uninstall the version of Crystal for Visual Studio I have and then install the other version of the same product? At that point is just rebuilding my application sufficient? Do I need to do anything with the references in my .NET project?
