Windows 7 really slow with Crystal Report

It's not just Crystal report - it's something to do with database access and putting it to screen!

The designer software my wife is using is exposing very similar habits - it worked fast up until Vista but since Win7 loading the stitch library (part of the software) slows down to about one stitch a second makes loading the program a bit of a pain. I had a look into the error log and found occurrences pointing to MFC42.DLL

Faulting application name: Easyc.exe, version: 7.2.0.1, time stamp: 0x4631f22e
Faulting module name: MFC42.DLL, version: 6.6.8063.0, time stamp: 0x4a5bda30
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00026ee5
Faulting process id: 0xa58
Faulting application start time: 0x01ca7c242f0a1136
Faulting application path: C:\PROGRA~1\EASYCR~1\Easyc.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\MFC42.DLL
Report Id: 75d17c41-e817-11de-bb84-001b2f2bb7a3

Thanks for the idea. I will try looking at the event viewer (should have thought of that; too used to linux where errors like this are a bit easier to find) when I get back to the office on Monday.

Crystal Report (8.5) is not working on win7/windows 2008 64 bit system

My application is a vb application and I am using Crystal report 8.5. It is working fine on 32 bit system and 64 bit system of Windows 2003 server. When I run the same application either on win7 64 bit or on 2008 64 bit, report does not open.
I am using vb script to access the database.
Part of the code written in the VB script file is as follows:
Dim objrsRecordSet 'As RecordSet
Dim strSQL 'As String

'**** Open Database Connection using the parameters passed from the main program
Set dbConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
dbConnection.ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=" & mstrServer & ";uid=" & mstrUserName _
& ";pwd=" & mstrPassword & ";Database=" & mstrDatabase & ";"

dbConnection.Open
dbConnection.CommandTimeout = 200

dbConnection.Properties("Enable Fastload").Value = True




Basically we have two visual basic projects developed in VB 6.0 language: let’s say
1. Diapp (we consume the report.dll in this application, in order to generating the reports)
2. Adacrystalapp (which is used for making the report.dll)


Diapp application generating the reports on windows-XP(32 bit machines) without any problems but when I run the same application on 64 bit machines(win7/Vista…etc) report is not generating.
If I run the both applications (Diapp, Adacrystalapp) in debug mode then reports are generating on 64 bit machines (win7/vista) also without any problems.




Please help me out with this issue, i will appreciate for your response.
