CE10 Error with subreport linking?

I have built a relatively simple report in Crystal Reports 10, which also includes a simple subreport. I pass the employee number and department number from the main report to the subreport. This report works great when run in crystal reports, but not when I run it in CE10. In CE10, the report runs, and succeeds, but when I try to open it, the title appears, but then I get an error message, "Information is needed before this report can be processed.".

If I delete the links to the subreport it works fine, but I need those links, only every time I add any kind of link to the subreport I get this error on CE10.

I would appreciate ANY help - thanks!!
 
Hi,
Does the subreport use the same username/password and database as the main?

- Thanks for the reply - I just double checked and yes I do use the same username/password and database for both reports.
It actually even seems like the report is running properly because it takes about the same amount of time to run both in Crystal and CE10, and it also says "success" after is runs in CE10. It is almost like the problem happens only when I try to view the report in CE10, like the links to the subreport only cause problems when I am trying to view it. Hmmm - anyway, thanks for your help
 
Hi,

I may know your problem way too well. Mine occurs when I export the business view to an XML file and then import it on our Production box. You can preview it in CE, right ? The problem only occurs when scheduling, right ? If so, I have had an open issue with Business Objects since March (they are idiots by the way). I have sent them logs, copies of the stored procedures I'm using, as well as the reports. This is a crystal bug.
