You have ported some Crystal objects to another environment, or rebuilt some extent of your existing Crystal hierarchy.

Crystal is looking for some objects which used to be in the old hierarchy which has been recently changed. You need to copy the previous hierarchy - i.e. folders contain the same subfolders they used to, the same objects in the same folders, and whathaveyou.

Alternatively, you are logged on as another user, trying to access some files which are stored in your original accounts private folder(s). Log on again as yourself.

Doh, thats not good.
I had to rebuild my computer last week. Now there is only
one computer I can update on..>Great.
No other way around this if I don't have the old folders.

Although I find it weird because I never kept the reports on the computer always on the network and that
folder structure hasn't changed.

Peter,

Did you change drive mappings? You could still have the same volume label and underlying folders, but if this volume is now mapped to a different drive letter, and you did not select the "convert to UNC" when originally setting the datbase location, you will get this error.

No, unfortuneatly not. I have writtens scripts for
all the drive mappens and they have stayed the same .

The only thing that has changed is a newly formatted laptop.
And a reinstall of Crystal. Luckily we have a computer that will update the reports but, I really need mine to do this..
