Using RR Ver 10 on a Win 2000 workstation, I make the reports that I want and they work beautifully. Went to a Win98 workstation and some reports work but some are 100% fatal ---Error in Kernel32.dll--and program is terminated.____In looking through other posts, found a mildly similar situation which was solved by using RR() with some calculated fields. Don^t know whether there is a relationship here or not.____Exact same report works on Win2000 workstation, crashes consistently on different Win98 workstations. Installations of Office XP are identical.____Possible solutions?____

Is this the report designer or runtime?__If runtime does it work if you double click execute the runtime executable and then select the report?______Kathleen__R&R Support

This occurs with the Report Designer, and also with the Runtime.____I should note that I THINK this is actually something within the reports because there are reports on the Win98 machine that will run.____

Additional information:__Turns out NOT to be the OS, but is indeed something within the report that goes all the way back to the original Access query.____I had created an IIF statement in the query to determine whether to use an Alt_Last_Name field or a Last_Name field. Once I removed the IIF statement from the Access query and created the same field in R&R to do the same thing, all problems went away. ____However, I^m still extremely baffled as to why the issue did not show up in my operating environment. I was able to replicate the problem on another Win2000 machine as well as all the 98s. ____

Very interesting. This is the first time that I have heard of this kind of problem.____Kathleen__R&R Support
