Answer / mlmcc

Crystal in its evolution has changed the report file format
several times.

In most cases the file format is FORWARD-compatible. By
this I mean a file created in Crystal 6 can be opened in
Crystal 6 or higher.

When the file format changes were major the format is not
BACKWARD-compatible. By this I mean a file created in CR 9
cannot be opened in CR 8 or before.

Crystal changed the report file format with CR 8 and CR 9.
The CR 9 change was because of the introduction of unicode
support.

CR 8 has the ability to save a file in CR 7 format.
Because of the support for unicode CR 9, 10, and XI cannot
save the file in previous formats.

One more interview question If I have the data where some columns have multiple values in a given row of data returned from the database. The stored procedure returns data as it is that is blanks values and non blank values. However, I need to suppress the blank values not by showing 0 values but by shifting the cells up. Is there a way using a formula to shift the blank cell one row up based on a selection critieria? In the example below, I want to get rid of the blank values under Exposure column without replacing with 0. example: Company Margin Exposure AB 500 3 10 7 8 ABC 200 4 2 5 10 Thanks Anita
