What version of Crystal Reports are you using? Is it the recommended version for the version of ARS that you use? Just to eliminate a possibility that it may not be a bug with the ARS application but possibly with Crystal, can you check known problems with Crystal on the version of Crystal that you are on? And update it to a later patch if possible?

The Mid-Tier seems to be sensitive to that whereas the WUT is more forgiving. Also, are those fields similar in name to other fields on the form? For example, do you have both "Entry ID" and "Entry_ID"? I could see crystal server getting confused about something like that. By the way, you definitely want to have "use underscores" checked in your ODBC config. Regards, Chuck Baldi Chuck, Thanks, but Yes, the erroring fields are in the view that the report is running against. And thanks for reminding me to recheck "Use Underscores." I had forgotten. Re: Another thing I might have tried doing just for kicks, is editing the report using Crystal designer, remove the query, recreate it, remove the field from the results, add it back, save, and then add the report file to the Remedy reporting application again. Then flush the MT cache if required again, and try the report from the web.. That would hopefully 'repair' any potential problem that might be with the rpt file itself.. Joe Joe, I removed the field from the report. Saved the report, then re-inserted the field, saved the report again, and re-attached it to the "Report" entry, then flushed the Mid-Tier cache. But I still get the error. But thanks for the suggestion. I'll try anything.

That one didn't work either, but it was worth a try. Keep 'em comin'.

I went to the host machine ODBC and the only thing checked was "Use Underscores." I unchecked it, but it didn't make any difference either to the reports that work or those that don't. Dwayne From: Latzko Joachim [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2010 8:30 AM To: Martin, Robert - martinrd Subject: AW: Crystal report can't find field in Mid-Tier Have you checked the ODBC data source on the machine where the Crystal Reports server is installed? There are some options like 'use underscores' and so on. Compare that to the setting of the ODBC Data Source on your workstation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Von: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) im Auftrag von Martin, Robert Gesendet: Do 25.02.2010 14:27 An: [email protected] Betreff: Crystal report can't find field in Mid-Tier ** Dear List, We have several forms with buttons that call active links, that open Crystal Reports for the entry on which the button resides. They all work in the WUT. But in Mid-Tier, there are two forms that give the error: This field name is not known. Details: errorKind Error in File C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\{71402FB4-0BAE-468A-AA5F-9E7AAEDC95CA}.rpt: Error in formula . '{CS_CallEntry.Entry_ID}="CS000148"' This field name is not known. Details: errorKind. I checked in SQL developer, and "Entry_ID" is the correct field name in CS_CallEntry. If it wasn't the report would fail in the WUT as well. (The other form gives a similar error, but with a different form and field name.) So why can Mid-Tier find the Entry_ID for all other forms, but not these two? And why can the WUT find it, but not Mid-Tier?
