Crystal Report Database Connectivity Problem

[Roger]

Hello all

Haven't worked with Crystal since the VB 4 days. Now for
the first time I'm trying to create a report in a .net/vb
project using SQL 2000 for the Database. When I add the
Crystal report to my project and right click, go to
database, then select Add/Remove Database, I get "no items
found" in my ADO.NET Datasets. I have the Data connection
established, I can view it in my server explorer. I can
access the data with everything else, just not sure why
crystal doesn't see it. I made sure the options were
correct in Data Explorer options settings. Not sure what
else to check unless it's some kind of permissions issue
in SQL. Any ideas ?

You'll probably get a better response if you post in
microsoft.public.vb.crystal. FYI - there's an online Crystal Report.NET book
at http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/Ch...GN=NGCR_031503 that you
might like to look at. This might help.
