How do I fix a Btrieve [22]: data buffer length

It is possible to upgrade or convert a Crystal report from an earlier release of Peachtree to the current release, Peachtree 2003 and get a Btrieve 22 error. 

When you open the report via Reports, Crystal and run Verify Database from the Database menu, you get a message that the database is up to date. However even if  you run Set Location from the Database menu,  then run Verify Database, it still says the report is up to date.

Try the following steps to eliminate the problem:

1.      Rename the original directory so that Verify Database cannot find the original report. 

or 

2.      Move the report to a different computer to insure that the original directory does not exist on it.
