can anyone here let me know how to install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2012.

I'm using Windows 8.1 32-bit OS.

Also which version would be a better choice.

There is only one version of Crystal Reports which works with VS 2012.

SAP Crystal Reports for Microsoft Visual Studio

The same version works with VS 2010 and VS 2013 as well.

So Install VS 2012 on WIn 8.1

Download the CRVS SP10 INSTALL EXECUTABLE from above location and install it on top of VS 2012.

For any issues with CR for VS, post a query here http://scn.sap.com/community/crystal-reports-for-visual-studio

The executable is on the same page http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824

First column first row.

After installing the EXE, you could design a Crystal Report inside VS 2012 IDE.

i tried the same 32-bit msi

after installing there is no option like Crystal Report in the reporting section of VS2012,

while in VS 2010 there used to be an option of Crystal Report in the reporting section

Do i need to restart my PC?

Did you see the snapshot I have pasted in my previous post. The link to the EXE which needs to be installed on top of VS 2012 is highlighted by a red box.

Here is the direct link.

MSI is meant for deployment only. For development you need the exe to be installed.
