Buffer Length Error

[rjmdt]

I'm getting a Buffer Length Error when I try and print preview a report. I just upgraded from Crystal Reports 6.5 to 7.0, I've tried saving the report in the new format, I've tried reattaching databases, I've tried using updated ddf's(Btrieve). Some of the reports work fine, others give the Buffer Length Error.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
RJ

I have never heard of crystal reports v6.5 and I have been doing this for 5 years. You most likely have a special version of CR which came bundled with some other software package rather than the real deal that you would get if you just ordered crystal reports from a retail channel.

If this is the case I would start with the tech support for that software. For example, I know Crsyatl Decisions won't support crystal when it comes bundled with Macola, you have to go to Macola for support in these cases.

If this is not the case, I am at a loss on where to start on this. Software Support for Macola, Crystal Reports and Goldmine

Buffer Length Error is a Btrieve database error. Check your Btrieve documentation and try to find out where the Btrieve buffer is being set. (In the old DOS Btrieve, it was set in the Terminate, Stay Resident (TSR) code as a command-line parameter.)
