Hi!
I use CrystalReports 4.6 (came with VB5) connected to mysql with odbc.
If you just connect Crystal via ODBC to mysql to have not to expect any
problems.
The only problem I got:
I was unable to start a report (from a VB6-app,data not saved within
report) til I filled out all the fields in the odbc-source.
The connect-proporty (filled in runtime: "dsn=a;db=b;uid=c;pwd=d;") from the
crystal-ocx doesent work with mysql for me. (like it does for other db´s).
I would like to know what I´m doing wrong!

You won't get much problems using crystalreport and oracle. I got many
problems connecting anything (through odbc -
ibm-personal-communication-suite) to a DB2 on a AS400. An eval. Version of
DB2 for NT worked fine.
But, if its possible to choose mysql I would never up(down)grade to any
other db.
