Conversion Problems... Converting from CR6 to CR8

[ErickTheRed]

I have a couple of reports that I am having trouble converting from Crystal Reports 6 to Crystal Reports 8. I am new to Crystal Reports and any help or suggestions are welcome...

First... I have had several reports that gave me the error "The page size was not large enough to format the contents of an object in the report"

I have managed to fix all but one of these reports by fiddling around with the sizes of the subreports or what they contain... Any other suggestions?

Secondly... I have another report that displays the first page perfectly, but the second and all further pages have 0 in fields which should not be 0...
It works fine in version 6, but not in version 8.

The important code follows:
*************************
-in my declaration statement...

StringVar Price;

StoreNumberVar ("Price",0);

-in my subreport

StringVar Price;

IF ISNULL ({RateTbl.RateAmt}) Then
StoreNumberVar ("Price",0)
ELSE
StoreNumberVar ("Price", {RateTbl.RateAmt})

-And finally the value that should show...

NumberVar PriceVar

PriceVar = FetchNumberVar ("Price&quot
***********************

Any suggestions anyone???? Thanks in advance! Erick

My problem for the second part was solved when it was pointed out that version 8 uses Shared variables now... as StoreVar and FetchVar are not efficient...
