Some additional information:
The file referenced as the OLE object is definitly there, where it is expected. In development mode in my app the temp files are not delted when the report processing finishes, so I can see that the file is being copied to the proper location. Also, the data being referenced by regular fields on the report is coming from FOX2X-type tables, all data querying is handled in VFP with the results being copied to FOX2X type tables to use the Crystal xBase driver. I don't think that would make any difference, since the OLE reference is coming directly from a BMP file, not a field reference, but I wanted to make sure I included all details.
