The DWSyntax utility (shipped with PB -- to ver 6.5 at least)is really useful for modify/describe. Also, you can make a datawindow resembling the one you'll be creating dynamically and then export the object to take a look at the 'create; syntax for it.

I ran it successfully in increasingly large 'chunks' and yes, it seemed to hit a threshold & die. Am I right in thinking that Crystal may require a good up to 100MB locally to generate the report -- I just cleared a bunch of stuff from my hard drive (I only had a few megs free and perhaps the...

A user is trying to generate a report but gets a Dr Watson at approx 60,000 rows. I've exported the SQL syntax and run it successfully against the database, so I'm assuming it's a Crystal issue. Any thoughts? Dr Watson excerpt follows: Application exception occurred: App: (pid=585)...
