Crystal Report Hangs System

Hello,

I'm just about concluding a win-forms pjt which uses crystal report for its print/print preview capabilities on VS 2005. The problem is whenever I try viewing a report using the crystal report viewer or try printing a report directly via code without viewing it I experience severe system hangs some times I have to power off the system.

In trying to curb the problem I've scanned my system for virus (found none using Panda), disabled the anti-virus to chk if by any chance it interfares. Nevertheless the problem wasn't solved.

I stepped thru my codes several times and on several occations I was able to detect the culprit. The system hangs whenever:
* A report object is about to be instantiated (i.e. when the constructor gets called)
*If not there, then wen the SetDataSource method is invoked.

The annoying thing is at times the whole thing goes through without incident. So pls help me out.
