Crystal Report Writer

I am loooking for some help using Crystal Report Writer with Pervasive SQL.

I have a Pervasive SQL V8 database and am currently using Crystal Reports 10. The client side of CR10 works just fine with an ODBC connection to the PSQL database. I have no problem running reports from PSQL.

I have just begun to use the browser-based Crystal Report Writer using the same ODBC connection. I cannot get the database connection established. Has anyone used CRW with Pervasive SQL? I don't know if my problem is with Pervasive or CRW but I do know that it works just fine with MS SQL and Oracle. Any assistance would be appriciated. Thanks!

What's the error?
Where's the data?
Where's the Web Server?

Thanks for the reply.

The error is states:"The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect." Sounds simple enough, I know but I have tried everything from CRW10. I currently have an ODBC connection set up on the web server and can get connectivity there. I can run the reports from a Crystal Reports client without issue.

The web server and the database server are not one in the same. They are on the same network, but in different locations.

I have the option to specify a "custom driver". I have tried to use w3odbcci.dll both with and without the directory path. Would this be the correct name for the pervasive ODBC driver? I'm stumped, I can usually figure this stuff out.

Thanks, again,

A few questions:
1. Does the PCC work from the web server to the database server?
2. If not, what error do you get?
3. It almost sounds like a permission error. Make sure that the web server user has proper rights to the database server.
