The CrystalReport Viewer control is a .Net assembly. By default, when you create a new .

net 4
Windows Form application, it uses the .net 4 Client Profile framework, not the standard .net 4
framework. After I converting the project to the standard framework, the Crystal Report Viewer
control becomes available under the Reports section.
