Hi Allen,

I'm not sure what the upgrade was for reports between 5.0 and 5.0a but I found that doing the following solved the problem for me:

USE myreport.frx
BROWSE
In first record remove contents of memo fields Tag and Tag2

Keep in mind that any time you modify and save the report in the designer you will need to do this again. HTH

I had them delete the application's directory before they installed again. I use the MS setup wizard for installation. Does it put some files in directories other than the app's target directory?
