I have verified the ODBC connection is set up correctly. Within Excel I can open the Data Connection and open the Tables the Crystal Report is using.

The only odd thing I'm observing is the report name in the error message... it contain random characters after the name but before the .rpt

Any advise and help is appreciated. This is a Windows 7 Pro PC with all patches applied.

Thanks,

Jim

One of the previous threads mentioned that LOGICITY is a 32 bit ODBC. If your windows 7 is 64 bit be sire to configure your ODBC as a 32 bit connection. You can google windows 7 32 bit odbc to find out how.

If it is not a simple 32 bit config then I do not know.
