I am using Crystal version 8.5. I have 2 linked subreports within the details section of a report. I need to export ALL fields (i.e. from the main and both subreports) to a csv file. When I create the export csv file, no fields from either subreport are included, only the fields from the main/parent report (details section). Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong???

Thanks in advance
 
Unfortunately for you, you're doing everything right:


You can't export subreports to CSV files in CR 8.5

BTW, subreports are evil, slow things anyway and should be avoided, especially in the details section.

Try creating a View or SP on the database or figure out some way to eliminate your subreports.

A lesser known trick in CR 8.5 is to paste SQL directly into an ADO type connection.
