Failed to Load database information in Crystal Rep

问题:

I'm having issue with Crystal Reports for VS2013. I have a windows application developed in VS2010 with CR.

When I try to run it in VS 2013, I get following exception:

Failed to load database information.
Error in File BillReport {E3FDAF36-9149-4F03-BCB6-EE66639AFFFB}.rpt:
Failed to load database information.

Following is my code to load crystal report from XML dataset which is populated by OLEDB connection

string sqlstr = "";
sqlstr = "select * from billMaster where billid =  " + billId + " and merchantName = '" + merchantName + "' ";
// DataSet ds = m1.selectData(sqlstr);

cmd = new OleDbCommand(sqlstr, m1.ccon);
if (m1.ccon.State == ConnectionState.Closed) {
    m1.ccon.Open();
}
OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(sqlstr, m1.ccon);

BillPrint bp = new BillPrint();

// dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
da.Fill(bp.billMaster);
sqlstr = "select srNo from billInfo where billId=" + billId + " order by srNo";
DataSet dsTemp = m1.selectData(sqlstr);
sqlstr = "select (srNo+1-" + dsTemp.Tables[0].Rows[0].ItemArray[0].ToString() + ") as srNo,billId,itemType,itemName,length,width,thickness,squareMeter,billRate,Qty,subTotal from billInfo where billId=" + billId;
OleDbDataAdapter da1 = new OleDbDataAdapter(sqlstr, m1.ccon);
// dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
da1.Fill(bp.billInfo);

string path = "";
path = Application.StartupPath + "\\reports\\BillReport.rpt";

/* if (RateVisible == 1)
{
    path = Application.StartupPath + "\\reports\\BillReport.rpt";
}
else if (RateVisible == 2)
{
    path = Application.StartupPath + "\\reports\\BillReportWithoutRate.rpt";
}*/
//  MessageBox.Show(path);

ReportDocument rd = new ReportDocument();
rd.Load(path);
rd.SetDataSource(bp);
crv.ReportSource = rd;
crv.RefreshReport();
