I have just started to use Crystal Reports version 8.5 with a Progress version 9.1B database. I am using the Merant 3.60 32 bit ODBC driver. I am having trouble with some simple reports and get the error "[Merant][ODBC PROGRESS driver] The keywords LEFT OUTER JOIN were not found in an outer join escape sequence". I have tried the Progress and Crystal Decisions knowledge bases and have found some recommendations but still haven't been able to get the reports to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
