What is the problem here? i tried using WinXP and Win98. After the WinXP VB packaging wizard has completed, it produces a totally empty Setup Package (with no files at all). while in Win98, it gives an "Unexpected error 28 has occured, out of stack place". i'm using CR 8.5 Developer Edition and Visual Basic 6.0 SP5

This is caused by an error in a CR dependency file (A different error in some CR dep file seems to happens with every new version)
Do the following:

Open the Crystl32.dep with Notepad (It should be in the Windows/System but check EVERYWHERE for additional to make sure this doesn't happen again and take note of it in case you re-install CR)

Search for and comment out the below entry completely:

[CRPE32.DLL]
Dest=$(WinSysPath)
Uses1=CRPE32.DLL
Uses2=

It should then look like this:

;[CRPE32.DLL]
;Dest=$(WinSysPath)
;Uses1=Crpe32.dll
;Uses1=
;Uses2=

Save it.
Now you shouldn't have any problems.....

The reason:

This entry is for the CRPE32.DLL. It is stating that it needs the CRPE32.DLL to run the CRPE32.DLL - a circular reference!
