Hi,

I just want to start create report from Oracle XE database. I create an ODBC connection from Windows and connect into database. But problem appears where I try to connect from crystal report there's an error says that connection can not start like TNS or something. Does any one can help or any experiences of creating crystal report on Oracle XE database?

thanks,


Tans

I do not know about Oracle XE, but our Oracle connection has to have the database information in a file called TSNnames.ora.  I do know much about Oracle.  The connection information was set up by our DBA.
