Determining if the RDC is using the Crystal Active Data Driver

If you are having a problem with your data connection and you want to make certain that you are using the Crystal Active Data Driver:

  1. Right-click the empty space beneath the field tree in the Field Explorer at the left of the RDC Designer.
  2. Select Set Location from the shortcut menu when it appears.
  3. When the Set Location dialog box appears, look at the Server Type at the bottom of the dialog. If the RDC is using the Active Data Driver, the server type will read Active Data and then give the active data type (For example, ADO, DAO, etc.).

Note:    Alternatively, you can select Convert Database Driver from the shortcut report. When you make this selection, the driver currently in use will be grayed out yet visible.
