I cannot find the answer to this question anywhere! Suddenly Crystal Reports is not displaying the Set DataSource Location dialog box when I select it from the menu. It is almost like it is there but I can't see it because I can't click on anything else and I must hit the escape key to continue. It is almost as though the dialog is there and the escape key closes the dialog. This is driving me crazy because I now can't change the datasource of the crystal report. I opened many different reports and have the same problem.

Through searching the internet I think it may be something to do with the resizable dialogs registry entry, but I don't know what it should be set to. Has anyone encountered this problem or have any ideas for me? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
 
By the way, I am using Crystal Reports XI. Thanks in advance for any help!
 
Sorry, dumb question. I figured out it had to do with using dual monitors (I'm on an undocked laptop now). The dialog box was off the screen, so after changing to a very high resolution, the dialog box was there. No wonder I couldn't figure this out by looking up Crystal specific stuff.

Thanks guys for the wonderful forum! This is the best place on the internet for technical problems!! :)
