No time to look for (other) forums.....

Just quick question:

Having to use version 8 for the first time. Opening up list of objects, looking for SPs. Only seeing tables. Suspecting SPs not supported in this version? Great. Can you confirm? Is there any way around it? Have I just not done it right? I can see / run the SP I need and used these in another organisation in v. XI, 10, not sure about 9.

Can I see views?

I'd appreciate if you have a definite answer I can give to boss, then I can look at a workaround...

Thanks

No problem. Need to tick stored procedures in the options!!

Now got the SP in there, parameters entered, all fine and, even, ALL the fields are browsed - no problem. The data is there. The fields are popped into the layout but when I preview, I get: 'Physical Database not found', so records 0 and Crystal doesn't even print the page headers on the page. All completely blank. Bearing in ming this is v8 - Seagate Crystal.

Any ideas why? The data is all there, scrolling right down. Physical database? You lost me Mr Crystal. The one thing in this life which is not physical is a database - electronic signals...

I changed a few things simple in the options and it just worked
