I keep getting this error message in Crystal Reports XI:

This group section cannot be printed because its condition field is nonexistent or invalid. Format the section to choose another condition field.

and completed the following:

1. Check the formula fields in the Field Explorer. You can right click on them and "Browse Data" to see if an error is produced.
2. Can we assume this report has groupings? Check the field(s) the report is grouped on. Are any of them null? NO!
3.     Check the group selection formulas.
4.     Check the record selection formulas.
5.     Have any of the uses of the report's datasource changed since it last ran correctly? Perhaps the format of a string field is different now.

plus any assistance would be appreciated!

1.     Check the formula fields in the Field Explorer. You can right click on them and "Browse Data" to see if an error is produced.

Also check for any formulas in the group section. Make sure they are working correctly.  Another possibility (even though remote).  Check to see if there is a group selection formula and that it is working correctly.
