It sounds like a deployment problem with the Crystal files. Check the user has a file called u2ddisk.dll on their machine - this file is required for Crystal 8.5 to give the option to export to file.

The availability of items in the Export Format and Export Destination dropdowns is dependend on the dlls present, and it sounds like you're missing Export To Disk from the Destination dropdown.
