Vince, Something is corrupting the index used by the data in the report. This happens when an anti-virus or auto-backup software temporarily locks the files when the indexes are supposed to be updated. With VFP 9, if you ship the "Report*.app" files, one of them may have gotten corrupted. If you have images in the report, the image is a bad type or corrupt. I get C5 errors when the VFP DLL's on the machine are not matched well. Usually we will get a new customer install our application and immediately get the C5 error when starting the program due to mismatched DLL versions. This is registered VFP9R.DLL is a different version than the VFP9RENU.DLL (or whichever language file you have). I have seen with VFP 6 SP 5 the environment variable PATH having incorrect paths cause a C5 on start up as well. And what Ted said about printer drivers. I rarely see them create a C5 (they do though), more often than not I see a windows spooler error.
