Hi, I just joined this group.

My client has QuickBooks Enterprise version 8.0 and Crystal Reports 10 Standard.

After some research and fuss, I have configured QODBC (ODBC driver for QuickBooks) and the test connection works within QB. 

However, the latest error message from Crystal is "Cannot connect to this data source.  This is Crystal Reports Standard Edition.  Please upgrade to Crystal Reports Professional version in order to connect to the data source you have selected."

Is this in fact what must be done or is there something else?  Seems like any ODBC driver should work in crystal, because isn't that the point?
