Crystal Reports XI (11.0) vs Crystal Reports XI R2 (11.5)

[Former Member]

Are there documented difference or compatability issues between Crystal Reports 11.0 components and Crystal Reports 11.5 components? We are using Crystal Reports XI 11.0 Professional edition, and we have an integrated 3rd party software that has compatability concernts with our version of Crystal XI 11.0.

We are wondering if there is any documented component incompatabilities between the compontents of 11.5, and 11.0. The 3rd party software company states that they are using 11.5 components.

Thank you for your time. I am a first time poster, and appreciate any assistance given.

Hello,

1st XI R2 is still supported and you can upgrade to R2 for free. Go to this link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc and download the trial version of CR XI R2 and use your XI keycode, then apply the patches which you can get to by clicking on the BusinessObjects tab above, then Downloads.

Direct link to the Trial version: http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx

Once you get it installed go to the keycode page and request an XI R2 keycode to enable all functionality.

Check the Businessobjects tab above for more info on the differences.

Thank you

Don
