I have the same issue - Crystal Just Freezes up.

Did you ever resolve this???

I resolved this for myself - not sure if this will help you but when i was opening the Database Expert crystal would just freeze.
Turns out that the Database Expert popup window was off screen.

I have a monitor that I use along with my laptop when I’m in the ome office but when I was at a client I didn’t have the extra monitor so the popup window was opening off the laptop screen

to fix this just either plug into an addition monitor and drag the database expert back onto your main screen or change your Graphics propeerties

Hope this helps

PB
