Hello,
 
I'm having an odd problem with CR11 only connecting to an ODBC instance when I open an existing report first.  If I try to open a connection and create a report from scratch, the ODBC connection attempt just hangs and eventually I need to kill the CR11 app.
 
I've tested connecting to the ODBC instance with the same username/password on a number of other applications without any issue.  And again, it only works when I first open an existing report.
 
Any help is MUCH appreciated.
