kevind Active Member I was more than willing to "pony up", how b'out U? Posts: 634 Gender:	Re: Report Writing for Dummies Reply #1 - 11/25/03 at 09:11:31 Todd, 1. What Version of Crystal Reports Are you using? 2. Is your Server Pervasive Server 2000i, or Pervasive Workstation/Workgroup 2000i? 3. Do you have your ODBC Datasource Setup and is it working Correctly?

Karen Genco Browser Posts: 29 Gender:	Re: Report Writing for Dummies Reply #8 - 10/21/04 at 14:06:24 I found a pretty good (and comprehensive) CD training series from CareerAcademy.com. It is a 7 CD set that takes you from the basics through the complicated utilizing audio/visual teaching methods. It is the best $550 I have ever spent.
