Reply To: Crystal Reports Query Hi all, Anyone familiar with Crystal Reports? Basically my proposed setup is as follows:- Windows 2022 server 64 bit mysql server 8.0.27 64 bit Windows 10 64bit client running crystal…

[UK Sentinel]

Wow, I remember Crystal reports back in the day, V11 was way back in 2004

SAP Crystal Reports 2020 v14.3 is 64 bit (not much help I know)

I read that Crystal Report XI R2 will work with Windows 10 64 bit OS – but regarding the use of  mysql 64bit ODBC driver to connect to the 64 bit database is preferable, which is not suitable with crystal Reports v11 (32 bit)

So I read that you can (as you say) use a 32 bit ODBC driver to connect to the 64 bit database or uninstall the 64 bit version of ODBC ll Administrator etc.

.’. I would use the 32 bit driver when the client application or process is also 32 bit

 

(never tested this, but best guess I am afraid and does sound logical)
