Crystal Report XI - Accessing a mySQL DB

My office just recently purchsed Crystal Report XI and the Crystal Server (hosted via contract). I (a non-IT type) have the pleasure of designing useful reports.

My question is...how do I get the two to talk to eachother. I've inupt the Database IP, Port, Database Name, Userid and login in as many places as I could find with no success....

The contracted company who hosts the server uses mySQL DB and is limited to providing the resource...not support or assistance.

Any guidance offered would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks,

Adam
