I&#39;m using the registry key SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\\Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2008 (KB971119)bcoz .. the last part of key Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2008 SP1 didn&#39;t work for me...Is that (KB971119) specific to my system... Because I need to check for installation in many systems...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11467244.post-16870146685623981632010-02-25T16:51:12.864-05:002010-02-25T16:51:12.864-05:00Chris, I think I found the source of my frustration. The developer who &quot;installed&quot; this did so by only copying over the assemblies rather than running through the installer. Hence, no registry keys or entries in Add/Remove Programs. Thanks for your assistance and sorry to send you on a goose chase.Mattnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11467244.post-5306157874279135542010-02-25T15:59:32.733-05:002010-02-25T15:59:32.733-05:00Matt,<br /><br />I just checked one of my Server 2003 64-bit machines with regedit and it had the key for <strong>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2008 SP1</strong><br /><br />How did you install the Report Viewer Redistributable? Does it appear as it&#39;s own under Add/remove programs?Chris Millerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07265018778273203357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11467244.post-22014273946791239232010-02-25T14:55:43.830-05:002010-02-25T14:55:43.830-05:00Hi, I&#39;ve installed the report viewer on a Windows Server 2003 64 bit server, but I am unable to find any reference to the report viewer package in the registry. I&#39;ve searched the entire registry for &quot;Microsoft Report Viewer&quot; and the KB number with no luck. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.Mattnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11467244.post-89605867920576270462010-02-12T10:05:32.229-05:002010-02-12T10:05:32.229-05:00Ahmed,<br /><br />Under what OS did you install it under? Was it 32 or 64 bit. Was this a machine with VS2008 already installed or a clean machine?Chris Millerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07265018778273203357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11467244.post-2376493303405490472010-02-12T07:20:39.809-05:002010-02-12T07:20:39.809-05:00I just installed the Report viewer SP1, and checked for these registry paths, but no use.<br />Any ideas?Ahmed IGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14131742401629313346noreply@blogger.com
