Ouch
I am using Crystal 8.5 but after installing Crystal 2008 trial the result is the same:
 
A professionally written report runs fine on our server and a few of our workstations. However, on other workstations (including mine) the report will not refresh; it gives the following error:
 
"The remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula." I can say OK, and a window showing the supposed error in the formula appears. However, the formula appears fine, and this same report will refresh no problem on my co-workers' machine. We are all running Windows XP Pro; the server runs Server 2003.
 
What is the problem! Anyone?
 
Thanks

I don't know, but have you refreshed/verified your database.  That sort of error happens to me when I change datatypes on the schema of the dataset and forget to tell CR that it has changed.

Actually ended up fixing it yesterday...certain DLL files were missing from the C:\Windows\Crystal directory. I copied all the DLL's that were missing from a workstation where the report worked and voila, it works. I am in the process of doing this to all affected workstations.
