Dear all,

I'm struggling to identify if i can use crystal reports standard to query ODBC data-sources, the only information i can find is the following :-

An intuitive solution that provides basic report design functionality off of PC-based data sources, Crystal Reports XI Standard Edition will provide you with access to data stored in personal data sources.

This gives the impression that i cant access any data other than local data, can anyone give me a definitive answer or point me to somewhere that explains in a little more detail. We are about to purchase some copies but need to ensure crystal reports standard can access ODBC data sources. We are replacing crystal reports 8 standard edition and need to ensure previous reports will still run.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Cheers

Andy
