Deploying Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

If you're writing an application that uses Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010, the steps for deploying the application and getting the report to work are not obvious.  The following steps helped me with deployment.
  1. Download and install the Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 Run-time on the server where application will be deployed.  

  2. Download is herehttp://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp 
  1. Copy C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ASP.NETClientFiles
  2. Paste to \Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727 (or the asp_client folder of the default website).
These steps seem very simple, but for a while I was running the report and getting a blank window.  I noticed a javascript error "bobj is undefined".  That was because I hadn't done steps 2 and 3.  Some searches led me an answer here: http://bytes.com/topic/net/answers/823323-crystal-report-error-bobj-undefined
