Compatability: CR 2008, VS 2005 and SQL Server 2008 on WINDOWS 7

[Former Member]

Crystal Reports 2008, Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2008 all play nice together on a VISTA or XP box. But we cannot get a connection when we switch the OS to WIN 7. I tried to get a connection via the report designer. Is this combination of technologies currently supported?

Thanks.

Hi, Jeff;

See the [Platforms|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/00225757-ab5c-2c10-c1a8-fb9f9f0f4ac2] document for CR 2008. You need Service Pack 2 to run on Windows 7.

If you already have SP 2, then what happens when you try to make a connection?

Regards,

Jonathan
