I was able to get this resolved per:
http://scn.sap.com/thread/1489916The "TrimTrailingSpace" key did not live in my Registry, so I had to create a new REG_SZ value for it.
"Carriage returns are removed from data viewed in Crystal Reports XI and XI Release 2.
Users
have the option to disable the feature that removes white space from
data. Set the value of the following registry key to 'No' (!):
For Crystal Reports XI:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\TrimTrailingSpace
For Crystal Reports XIR2:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\TrimTrailingSpace"
