I've used Crystal for years and as late as Version 7, the standard edition
could be made to connect to an ODBC driver, so I assumed that this was true
with version 8, but apparently I was wrong. So, I looked on the Seagate
Software web site and the standard edition doesn't connect to some ODBC
sources. This is new to me. Here is the URL so you can check
http://www.seagatesoftware.com/products/crystalreports/editions/content.asp
Let me know if you need anymore help,
