Business Objects released a Crystal Reports hot fix for Visual Studio 2005 which I found after some very heavy searching. The patch helped me with linked parameters in subreports, which were causing prompting before the fix. For anyone using Crystal Reports in VS 2005, I highly recommend applying this patch:

Here is the information from knowledge base article:
KBase Article ID:c2018840
Article refers to:Crystal Reports .NET
Symptom
In Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2005, a subreport link is configured between a database field on the main report to a stored procedure parameter field in a subreport. When the report is run, a dialog appears and prompts for the linked subreport parameter field. The parameter field should have been automatically populated by the main report.

I'm running VS2008 with Crystal Reports 2008 and having this same exact issue. Does anyone else have any different solutions?

I have not tried VS 2008 with CR 2008, so I do not know any other solutions. Good luck!
