My input file has a field that contains an array, it looks like this
"$100 discount", "LCN8 Bookbundle", "3 for 4", " Manual", "$150 Memebership upgrade".  I want to seperate each occurance and print each variable under a different column.  I have tried several different things and can't get anything to work.  When I try the 'unbound' it acts like the field is not an array.

I haven't used array too often, but if the number of array members is constant you should be able to create a number of formulas that look like:
 
arrayVariable[1]
 
which should print the value in the array.
 
I would have thought that Crystal would have treated the values as separate fields when it read in the file....hmmm....but I have never worked from input files, just tables and stored procs.
 
hope this helped

The input file is a excel spread sheet.
