Report from VB works first time only

I'm calling CR 8.5 from VB6 using CRAXDRT. On some machines the reports work fine, on others it works the first time but for all subsequent runs it displays data from a different table. This 'extra' table is not referenced anywhere in the report but is used as a working area by VB. VB updates the table location in the report.

Because it works on some machines, I don't think it's the reports or the program. It looks like a Crystal set up problem of some sort.

Any suggestions? Anyone seen anything like this?
 
do all machines have the same crystal reports update patches?
 
Any chance the report has saved data? That might be why it seems to work the first time. Ken Hamady, On-site Custom Crystal Reports Training & Consulting

Ken - the reports do not have any saved data.

Konad - the same install is used for all the machines. That doesn't necessarily mean the files are the same though. Are there any patches to CR 8.5? I'll check the file dates and versions.



Many thanks for your input.
