PHP, COM, & Crystal Reports

OK, I am going to rephrase my original post. I have a PHP script which calls a COM object which talks to Crystal Reports which runs a report and returns a PDF file to display in the browser. I need Crstyal Reports 8.5 - or better - to do this. Now, I have CR8.5 installed on my system and all works fine. Now, if I want to distribute this functionality to end-users, how can I do this without them having to also install Crystal Reports. Can't I just provide a few necessary DLL's ? I can't seem to find any documentation on this anywhere. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions or good sources of info for Crystal Reports?
