I have a web based application and I want to use crystal reports created with cr8.5 but I've got errors for those that are using ODBC connections or queries from SQL Query Designer.

Does anybody know about this matter?
 
I would suggest staying away from SQL Query Designer, it's rumopred to be a dying breed.

Same thing applies to ODBC, though to a lesser degree in my mind, MS no longer supports it.

I'd just bite the bullet and set up OLE DB connections for these, and use Views or SQL.

Synapsevampire,

"...ODBC, though to a lesser degree in my mind, MS no longer supports it."

Why is this and what are you supposed to use in its place?

Thanks
