what is the difference and the advantage of oracle connection over ODBC to run a crystal report.

Hi,
ODBC adds another layer to the connection code that is not needed - Native connections are faster in most cases and more compatible ( assuming the correct version of the client ) with Oracle specific stuff. ( CLOBS,BLOBS, etc)
