In database Expert "SET database location " is in grey.
Actually, first I need to connect to oracle server, (I have Oracle 8i on my machine). I cant see ORACLE in DATABASE EXPERT. What should I do?
Thanks for ur help.

I would guess that Oracle wasn't installed when Crystal was.

You'll probably need to update the install by going into data access and I tend to just tell it to install everything to the local disk.

Yesterday, afternoon I installed Oracle 8i & then after that I installed crystal report XI developer + CRXi server.
Today, I already reinstalled the CRXI in the morning.
Is CRXI supports Oracle 8i?
I know CR9 doesnt support oracle 8 or older version.
