Support for Visual Studio 2013

[Former Member]

Hi there,

I just installed a new system (VMWare, Windows 7 Ultimate) with Visual Studio Professional 2013. I registered the license as a Trial Version for 90 days.

Now I try to install CRforVS_13_0_7 that I downloaded today (oct. 18 2013) from the SAP website.

When running this exe as administrator, after accepting ACL, =Choosing Setup Language English, Windows installer pops up with a message box.

This message box has the title : SAP Crystal Reports, vesion for Microsoft Visual Stuido Setup

The text of the message is :

"You must already have Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Studio 2012 installed to proceed with this installation."

It only gives me the option OK.

When clicking the OK button, the installation is cancelled.

Does anyone know of a fix for this issue because I need CR Reports for Visual Studio and we have to migrate to Visual Studio 2013.

Hi Hans,

SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (SP7) only supports Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Studio 2012.

It does not support Visual Studio 2013 yet.

For more info, see below threads where this query was discueed in detail.

Guys,

Any news on a CR release which supports VS2013? If not yet available, do you know when it's likely to become available?

Hello Robert

ETA is still March 2014, Service Pack 9. Only thing that changed is that this was going to be in SP 8, but we moved SP 8 up due to some backward compatibility issues in SP 7. So, the actual SP is 9.

Ludek,

Is there any way to be notified when the VS 2013 version becomes available?

Thanks,

I will tweet about it:

Follow us on Twitter

And there will be an announcement in the Overview tab of this Space under "Featured Content".

That's about all I can do at this time.
