Trying to install Crystal 8.5 onto a new workstation with Exact Progression SQL version 7.7. "Special" Macola fields don't seem to be there, like the MACOLARemoveZeroes (, )and other functions specific to Macola. Are we missing some sort of driver? I know that we are supposed to have moved to a newer version of Crystal, that for a number of reasons, we need to stay on 8.5. Is this a known issue with 7.7?
 
These aren't special fields but are custom formula functions that appear in the functions list of the formula editor. There is a DLL that provides these functions and that DLL is probably missing from the new workstation. I think it is called cruflma.dll.
