  Hello,
  
  I searched but didn’t see anything on adding the controls not working.
  
  AR 14.3.20938.0, VS 2019 16.9
  
  I can copy/paste the control on the report but I get an error when I try to add a control from tools.
  
  Did I miss something.
  
  Thanks in advance,
  
  Anna

  Hi Mohitg,
  
  The error was “c/users/MyName/AppData/Local/Microsoft/VisualStudio/16.0_0a9d57bd/ProjectAssemblies/05j1omzi01/GrapeCity.ActiveReports.dll missing”.
  
  There are many other project assemblies containing ActiveReports.dll, but the drag/drop control wanted to use only this one. I created it manually and was able to add control. However anytime I open another project in Visual Studio to upgrade it to AR14, this particular folder disappears and I have to create it again.
  
  Is something wrong with the installation?
  
  Thank you.
  
  I also posted separately a problem with the license.

  Hello,

  Do you have any other version of AR installed on your machine?

  Thanks,

  I am getting this error also when dealing with VS 2019 and AR 16. Yes I have another version of Active Reports because I’m upgrading the report from version 13 to version 16.

  Can you have two version of ActiveReports on the same development System?

  Hi Shane,
  
  > Can you have two version of ActiveReports on the same development System?
  
  Yes, you can have multiple versions of ActiveReports installed on the same development machine (except for ActiveReports 13). Please refer to the following page of our documentation:
