Seagate Crystal Reports: Database Error

Former Member
0 Kudos

I am using Crystal reports Version 8 and frequently get the error 'Seagate Crystal Reports: Database Error' when I try to open a previously working crystal report file. The error occurs when I click on the Database menu. Every time I get this error I end up redesigning the report as the I have not yet found a solution and I cant run the report.

The error is a message box with the title 'Seagate Crystal Reports: Database Error' and an ok button - nothing else.

Its very frustrating!

Please help.

Thanks.

Hi,

What database are you using and how are you connecting to it?

What are you clicking in the Database menu: Set Location, Verify Database, Show SQL Query?

Before opening the report, can you connect to the database first then open the report?

I would have expected an error code or a more descriptive error to follow.

Thanks,

Brian
