Hi Saadi.A,

WPF doesn't have a Crystal report Viewer control at this point. You need to host the Windows Forms Crystal report viewer control in WPF.

Please follow this link for hosting Windows Forms Control in WPF: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms751797.aspx#Windows_Presentation_Foundation_Application_Hosting

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Min
