I have a number of reports written in CR 10 Developer, SP2.
These reports use simple subreports based on Oracle 8i stored procedures.
An example is one that returns a number of document numbers as comma-separated text. There may be no values returned or there may be 20 or more.
Oracle data type is VarChar.
Before verify database, the field type in Crystal's Field Explorer is String and length is 2000.
After verify database, the field type is still String, but the length may have dropped to 32 for example.
This behavior is NOT consistent, either on one PC or on any number of PC's.
