I'm building a complex, custom report that is heavy in code.

Everything has been working perfectly fine. But, I made two small changes (changed values of string variables), and now, I cannot open the report in Report Center without it crashing.

Also, it would crash when I ran the report.

So, I opened up the RPX file and copied and pasted it into a new Custom Report. I commented out everything but the initialization and it Published just fine. And when I ran it, as expected, nothing happened - but it didn't crash. However, when I tried to open that report again, it crashed on me. But, then I opened up the Reporting Center again, and I can run the report just fine (again, nothing happens as expected but it doesn't crash).

Are they any suggestions as to how this could have happened?

I'm at approximately 4k lines of code, but I cannot see that being the issue. Amd of it is, that just doesn't seem right. Also, I looked at the data for the error report, and I can't make sense of it. I can't even copy/paste it, so it doesn't really help me at all.

This actually started happening to me last night. I had to leave the office, though so I put it off until tonight. When I opened D-Tools first thing today, it crashed and gave me an error saying that my DesignerData.XML was missing an end tag. So, I uninstalled and reinstalled.

I'm really not sure what is going on here.

EDIT:

Problem solved. The issue was that the report would start crashing as soon as I clicked on it to open it. This is because it would try to preview the report and when trying to do so, it'd crash. So, it was impossible to open the report without it crashing.
