Hi,

Whatever I do sometimes decimal are suppressed or replaced by zero. Relaunching the program sometimes solve the problem. When the problem appear then all the numeric fields have it. The sum are also wrong - sum of truncated numeric fields...-

I have the problem for many many months.

8.0 Crystal run-time and Centura 1.1.2 With Windows98 and XP.
 
CR 8 isn't really supported anymore, but you may be able to find a related hotfix.

I would write the report to force the decimals, and keep in mind that decimal precision is set in 2 ways:

File_>Report Options->Fields->Number set the default

Then right clicking the field and setting it's precision using Format Field.

Perhaps by setting both of these you'll achieve better results.
