Hard Page Breaks missing when exporting to Excel Workbook using Crystal 2020

When exporting to the Excel Workbook format from Crystal 2020, there are no hard page breaks inserted causing our application to be unable to properly read the workbook and split on page breaks.

To reproduce:

1. Set up a report in Crystal 2020 that contains a grouping section that creates a new page after the change in group value.

2. Export to Excel Workbook. Select the Create page breaks for each page setting in the Export Options.

3. Export. View the output in Excel using Page Break view.

The page breaks are all soft page breaks.

This works if exporting to Excel (.xls) format.

Hi Dave,

Support confirmed it's an issue so they are creating an internal case and will have DEV fix it.

Not sure when the patch will be released, shouldn't be too long though...

Thanks again for reporting it.

Don
