Hi

We have designed a crystal report containing a bitmap. One bitmap is selected in report at design time, which is updated in our custom interface before generating the report. On generating the report, the following dialog box is displayed.
(Sorry the dialog image can not be posted.)

The dialog has:

Title : Updating ActiveX Objects...
Message : Updating Links...
Progress Bar: Show 0% all the time.
Button : Stop (Available all the time)

The dialog box is displayed for a considerably long duration and appears non-functional. The progress bar continuously displays 0% status. On clicking Stop the report is displayed without the bitmap.

This occurs only on systems with fresh installations of Windows 2000 and Windows XP OS. The same report works well on systems with Windows 98 and Windows ME installations.

We would appreciate, if any one can provide a solution or can explain this behavior.
