    Text Input?

    Can Crystal Reports generate a report from a delimited text file? I know it will do Access and Excel but what about a text file?
    Thanks,
    Russ

    Yes it can. You need to create an odbc dsn using the Microsoft Text driver. Then within crystal you can use the dsn as your database for the report.
