I agree - I hate that copout. The issue belongs to whoever's name is on the software. Since you didn't deal with their sub-contractor, that's Crystal's job to do in support of its customers. I know that sometimes there's little that can be done (like when Remedy and Verity had that FTS issue a few years back), but they at least need to make a better effort than what you reported.

I don't have a crystal server or report server, but I do have many requests for daily reports that needed to be automated. I just create the Crystal report, put the report definition on the server, and then user the scheduler to email the report at a specified time, and day frequency desired. Works great from that perspective. It uses the AR ODBC driver. Where I have a problem, is that there must be some kind of memory leak issue at some point when the reports are generated. Something is not closing properly and although I've requested help from CrystalDesk little has been forthcoming. Therefore every other day right now I have to go in and 'exit' the application and restart it to clear the memory usage it has accumulated. Since the memory usage is on that application in the Task Manager I would think it's the application not doing something it's supposed to. When I first start the application memory usage is about 7,220K, after one day of report generation it is 519,124K ! Is anyone else using the scheduler out there and if so, do you have the problem too? If you fixed it, how? I have to add quite a few more reports to the scheduler and that's going to mean a daily exit/restart.
