I am using the version 8 Crystal Web Components server to serve my reports. Many of the reports are still in older formats like 5 and 6 and I have been making update with version 8.

I have an ASP page that will list all the .rpt files in a folder and display their description/summary property like the following:

Invoices by Day.rpt - Displays Invoices grouped by each day.
Inventory List.rpt - Displays Inventory levels by stockroom
Cash Requiremetns.rpt - Shows outstanding Purchase Orders

The reports written in Crystal 5 and 6 still show the "Summary Information" properly as the Windows "Comments" file property, however when I try to read the property after I save it in Version 8, the property shows blank when querying it with an asp page, but it still shows fine in Crystal Reports.

Is there a way to fix this?
