 I am A VB6 developer tasked with converting our VB6 projects to VB net. Some of these projects use the data report designer that comes with VB6. The upgrade wizard for  VB net does not convert these data reports to crystal reports.
 
Does anyone know How I can import the dsr files created in the original VB6 project to the converted VB net project.
 
I would have to have to recreate the original report from scratch. Some projects have several of these data reports. It would be difficult to recreate these reports exactly as they were in the original report.

The VB6 data report wasn't very populare and it died a quick death when it was released. No one ever wrote a conversion tool for it. You'll have to do it from scratch.
