CR 2008 on Windows 7, with DataDirect drivers

29 Views

When I creata a new report (or open a current report) and try to create a new ODBC connection (or a current one in the old report) I get error:

I select Data source, click Next, add the password (to the OracleXE database) and click Finish.

The error is: Crystal Reports has stopped working.

CR is then closed.

I have CR 2008, SP2 (12.2.0.290)

The DataDirect drivers where installed from the Download directory (tried to install then in System32, but got error messages). So I ran the setup following the instructions on the screen, and saw the drivers where installed under windows\sysWOW64\

I use CR Oracle ODBC Driver 5.3

I have Oracle 10G CLient connecting to the ORacle XE

I have defined a System DSN, which tested successfully. Also tried a User DSN.

Windows 7 home premium, 64 bit

Any help deeply appreciated,
