Progress & Crystal Reports 1

[buffy13]

Hello,

I just started out programming in Progress and have a question about Progress and Crystal Reports. How do you get your progress database in Crystal Reports? I read something about installing drivers.I'm probably asking a very stupid question, sorry if I am.:-(

You use the Merant Progress SQL92 ODBC driver to connect Crystal Reports to Progress. You should be able to find documentation on this where you have Progress installed. Find the drive and folder where Progress is installed (typically c:\dlc\). there should be a folder named 'ODBC', this is where you can find information about setting up your ODBC connection. Once you have the connection established, you should be able to pull Progress data into Crystal Reports and create your reports. Hope this helps.
