Crystal Viewer error "This field name is not known"

Former Member

I have MAS500 with crystal 10 that runs a report from a view in a SQL data base and it ran fine when only MAS500 and ABRA were installed on the terminal server. Then we installed a new product CribMaster that also uses Crystal 10. After CribMaster was installed we got the error "This field name is not known" from Crystal viewer. The report has a selection parametar . I feel that there is a dll file that got over written, but do not know which one. I can run the report from Crystal OK, but not from within the application.

Since you can run the report from Crystal OK, but not from within the application, I'd recommend trying to figure out the dlls loading, or not in the app. Use a utility such as [Modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] to determine the differences. Modules will compare the log results for you (Module menu, choose "Differences").

You may also want to consider contacting the app creators to see if they can help...

The utility Modules that was suggested did help me to locate the dll that was causing the problem.

Thanks
