Upgrading application from PowerBuilder 10.2 using Crystal Reports 8.5 to PowerBuilder 10.2 or PowerBuilder 11.5 with Crystal Reports XI R2

• Code is from an earlier version of the RDC. 
• It was last supported in Crystal Reports 8.5.
• The code for Crystal Reports connectivity was completely rewritten in version 9.0 with the introduction of our QueryEngine:
  • See How the new query engine affects reports in Crystal Reports 9.
       
• The new code is described in:
  • Report Designer Component 9 Connection Properties.
    
    
• Note that with the addition of the Query engine, Crystal Reports now reads the specific database driver being used.
  • The properties for an ODBC driver are different than and OLEDB driver.
  • The properties of a SQL Server driver are not the same as Oracle.
  • The big difference between MS SQL Server and Oracle is Oracle does not have a database property.
• The older connection code is no longer supported:                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                     
  // Connect to database using odbc 32bit - this will not work:                                                                                                   
  go_crystal.LogOnServer("crdb_oracle.dll","serverName","userID","userPassword")

• Upgrading older reports, the .DeleteAll method of using ConnectionInfo described in "cr_rdc9_connectionproperties.pdf" is recommended.
• See Crystal Reports in PowerBuilder - Report Designer Component Tutorial and Getting Started Guide, which describes using the RDC in PowerBuilder.
• Here is the matching PowerBuilder RDC application:
