I am creating this report using Crystal Reports 11.5 that is a look at our database values. This means that users can select which tables to display and the report will show them all rows in that table (I realize this is not such a great idea but that's what was asked for).

The report is a collection of sub reports, one for each table. There is logic in the report that suppresses the sub reports based on a parameter passed in (control string). Now here is where it gets fishy: Some tables work just fine. When I select to run them they display with no issues. However, when I select certain tables the entire report is displayed as a blank page (which usually indicates an error in the report that is not in the code). Depending on the table, these trouble tables WILL display under certain circumstances like if it is the ONLY table selected or if certain other tables are not selected or if I'm on my development box instead of a production server. This makes no sense!

Let mention that the databases are the same. The control string that is passed in to hide/show reports is correct also. I have also attempted to rewrite some of these sub reports to varying degrees of success (not much success mind you). Please, if someone has some insight on the issue let me know.
