I have been having a problem when using the Crystal Reports designer that if I repeatedly make small changes and then switch to the report preview, eventually Crystal Reports will crash Visual Studio 2010, usually when I am trying to save my work. I have just installed Support Pack 11 to see if this fixes the problem, and I can now crash Visual Studio immediately after making a small change (I removed a border) from one field and then tried to save the report. The crash is repeatable as it now happens each time I make the same small change and then try and save the report.
Additional info, I am working on a sub-report in a report that has several different sub-reports. The report and sub-reports gets their data directly from the database and each query joins multiple tables. The crashes usually happen on saves, but have also happened while making small formatting changes and then switching back and forth to the report viewer tab to see their effect.
Any thoughts on what is causing this? Or how I could gather some more information for some one to review? Or even some way of working around the problem as the report can be saved before changes but not after making a small change to the sub-report..
Thanks, Neil
