Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 and DataDirect drivers

[Former Member]

Does Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 support fetching data from DataDirect drivers? All documentation I found on the net spoke of Crystal Reports 2008. Want to know: if there are DataDirect drivers installed on my PC, can I design a report in "Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010" to fetch data from these drivers? There is talk going on in my organization about using DataDirect drivers for DB2 and I am researching whether CR for VS 2010 will support as we have quite a few reports developed with it. Any information will be helpful.

Hi Girish,

No reason why it would not, you specify the ODBC driver when creating the report so CR will simply look for that DSN when the report is run.

CR for VS does not install the CR DD drivers, how you get them is up to you.
