Report error message only for two users

Crystal 8.5

I have a report that uses a formula called "Variance Value".

numberVar Var :=
if {animal.animal_type} in "CAT" and {animal.sex} in "F" then {@Variance #} * 62.38 else
if {animal.animal_type} in "DOG" and {animal.sex} in "F" then {@Variance #} * 90.74 else
if {animal.animal_type} in "CAT" and {animal.sex} in "M" then {@Variance #} * 39.70 else
if {animal.animal_type} in "DOG" and {animal.sex} in "M" then {@Variance #} * 56.71;
shared numberVar RT := rt + var;
var;

When this report is run from 2 of our user's machines, they get the following error message:

Error in formula <Variance Value>. 'numberVar Var =?' A variable name is expected here.

This same report runs fine all a dozen other machines.

Any ideas on why this error appears on selected computers would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Why not change the variable name and see if that addresses the issue. Add an X at the end (varx) or something. For some reason, those computers seem to be reading "var" as a reserved word.
