I got a bit upset by the Brazilian guys, they know less than me about
Crystal and tried to get my money in every chance they think they get. :-)
But there is a knowledge base on the crystal site, where I found some
info, the bug I was trying to report to the brazilian guys was reported
there and a workaround was available.
Try looking on the website, for sure there is some discussion group like
this, but I don't go there since I use a very old version, I think it's
not even supported any more. I use version 7, the current is version 11
(or XI).
But it's way off topic here.. sorry people...
see you !
