I've been using Crystal for years and personally I think most of the problems are with Crystal. It just sucks at running queries on large dbs.
What we've had to do to make it not so unpleasant is use our application, in our case Delphi, to do all the querying and write the results out to a CSV...
I have a panel that is closed be default but then animates and opens at a certain keyframe and stays open.
I want to put a combo box on that panel that loads a list of values (from a php script).
How do I get the combo box to load its results when that panel is fully open? Where do I put the...

My version 5 is an upgrade install. I think my original CRW was 3.0 which came with my VB 4.0. If I remember correctly the 5 upgrade asks for the location of the previous crw exe, which can exist on a cd and doesn't have to be installed.
If you want to send me...
You could also use session vars
$_session["var_name"] = "something";
Just put a start session at the top of each page.

From what I understand a group by fields list must also be included in the GROUP BY ...

I've written such a script though it has to be installed on your server and you have to have your mail application execute the script when new e-mail is received.
If you are trying to do this from your Desktop e-mail client, then you need to write a windows application to do the work.

Anyway after doing some searching on the web for this problem someone mentioned...
Connecting using the FILE.DDF did the trick, thank you very much.
I'm still going to try and find out why it doesn't work using the Pervasive ODBC driver. If/when I find anything I'll post it here.

When I try and connect via Crystal Reports I get the following error:
Crystal Reports: Database Error

Option 1:
Create a front-end desktop app (with necessary dlls) to run the reports from a shared repository?
Option 2:
Create a client/server app where your server app actually executes the report and exports it to html for the client to then view.
