Hello there,
How can I get the pdssql.dll. There is a client machine that is not installed sql and says pdssql.dll is missing. However I cannot find it in any other machine even the ones that runs okay. Can some1 email it to me or tell me how to get the physical thing! Please.

Hello~
I am not sure what version of Crystal you are using but when I typed in this error at the Business Objects web site I found this solution...
"When distributing a compiled report created off MSSQL ensure that the MS SQL client is installed on the target machine. Crystal Reports specifically requires the file Ntwdblib.dll from the client to make a connection to the database. Ntwdblib.dll is part of the SQL Server client application."

Okay...thank you. I actually had to install SQL Client but I though I could just register the DLL without needing to install sql. So it means PDSSQL does not exist physically?

Thanks

i think that it does...just as a part of something else...it doesn't stand alone on a machine...if that makes sense...
