I had this issue with some CFR reports that were developed under CF7 and recently (now using CF9/10) we wanted to change a column heading and doing so resulted in this error.
I made a copy of the file, opened it with Report Builder, ran the Report Wizard which re-styles the report using the in-built styling themes, but then select everything in all the report bands and delete - so now you essentially have a blank report. Then open the original CFR and copy and paste the content of each report band back into the respective bands in the new document and save.
This got the file working for me. I had to tweak a couple of margins and sizes to make it look the same as the original, but I was back up and running in less than 30 minutes.
Hope this helps.
