easier still to verify it is to uninstall the offending report writer
(manually check and uninstall all CR related DLLs) and re-install the
Vantage client and see if that makes the problem go away.

There could be some hooks to Crystal in there that might be an
issue. Probably have to obtain this from Epicor Support and they can
say if it is relevant or not.
