I'm using Crystal and ASP to publish a report based on an Access 97 database. The report works in the designer and I can create a drop-down list on the web using ASP, but the report itself fails when I execute ReadRecords on the report object. The error message says the server has not yet been opened. Anyone have any experience with this kind of problem?
 
The 'server has not yet been opened' message is a common one. Firstly I'd suggest that you are pointing to the correct path for the database - if you've developed the report on one machine and moved it to another the path from the old machine is maintained in the Crystal Report object itself and may need to be re-set for the new machine. Alternatively it may be the case that you do not have the DLLs required for the data access on the machine on which you are running the reports.
Hope these pointers lead to an answer for you.
Steve
