"Error: Subreport could not be shown"

I have a Winform application (.NET Framework 2.0) that displays several local
reports using the ReportViewer control. I have two main reports (referred to
here as A and B) that display a subreport (referred to as C).

On the machine used to develop this application, all reports, both main and
subreport, run successfully when executed in the VS 2005 environment and from
running the executable directly.

After xcopying the application to a different machine, reports A and B are
displayed successfully except the subreport displays "Error: Subreport could
not be shown".

Any ideas on how to figure out what is going on, or are there any know issue
with subreports being displayed in the ReportViewer control?

Can I provide any additional information to help get a response? This is
still not resolved. Thanks in advance.

I found the following link to a Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2005
which includes Windows Forms and ASP.NET web server controls for viewing
reports. The link is below.

<http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=8a166cac-758d-45c8-b637-dd7726e61367&displaylang=en>

I installed this on the client machine that is not able to display the sub
report. This did not fix the issue.
