    I am trying to create a report and I cannot connect to my Access 2000 Db. Is there a conflict or am I doing something wrong.

    What does your connection string look like?

    What I'm doing is I am creating the report in Crystal Reports using the wizard and connecting the report to the access Db. then add the fields and the fields are not recognized for some reason. After I create the report I was going to call the report and query data and display it in the report through VB. but I cannot connect the Db to the report in Crystal Reports.

    Cr7 Doesn't recognize directly Jet4.0 you must select first an odbc/access connection then you'll see the MDB's fields and the editor works perfectly. But that doesn't resolve the problem. In fact I have a bug when I call the report from VB. In the seagate site I find a fix, I'll try then I'll mail you back if you need.

    Bye

    I got it to connect using ODBC access. The first time I tried it it did not work but I tried it again and it worked for some reason. I guess your right! there is some kind of bug in it.

    Thanks
