>>I have to trundle off to the local Crystal Reports training folks tomorrow and help them install the VFP ODBC driver so they can train some of my users to use Crystal Reports on the data in a VFP 3 app of mine.

>>I have minimal experience with ODBC. It appears that I can go the the downloads section in VFOXPRO in MSDN, download the driver and just follow the bouncing ball. Are there any interesting points I need to watch out for?

>Depends on the version of crystal. Version 8 will pretty much do most of it for you. If your data is in a DBC, that will help, because you only need to create an odbc DSN for the database container. Otherwise you may have to create a DSN for each free table.

You may want to turn off 'Fetch data in background' in the VFP Driver configuration, or some users may experience problems in data refreshes.(assuming that you have downloaded the latest version of the ODBC driver for VFP)
