If you are converting programs that contain CrystalReport objects and you want to convert these to the RDC way (so using cCrystal) you need to pay attention to used constants. If there is a replacement for the PE_<name> constant in the RDC class structure you need to convert the use.
For example the sort order. In CrystalReport class objects the constants are PE_SF_DESCENDING and PE_SF_ASCENDING. In cCrystal the constants are named crDescendingOrder and crAscendingOrder. It is not the name that is important but the value. PE_SF_DESCENDING is defined as 0 and crDescendingOrder is defined as 1 while PE_SF_ASCENDING is defined as 1 and crAscendingOrder is defined as 0.
Note: These differences are made by Business Objects. If you take the RDC route you should fully take that route.
