    I have both Active Reports v11 and v10 loaded on my machine, v10 was recently installed after v11. I’m not sure if the installation of v10 is causing my issue, but I can no longer load reports in the designer and when I add a existing report to another project using vs 2017 the report is not reference properly and I get a ton of error. I get the following error when trying to load the report in VS 2013 in the project it was originally written/designed in:

    I have no idea what’s going on and I can’t find any answers/fixes anywhere. What am I missing?

    Uninstalling and reinstalling Active Reports v11 fixed the error. For the “add existing item” issue, I was trying to add all the reports at once, when I added them one at a time and waited for the system to resolve the dependencies I was able to add all the existing reports I needed to my new project.
