Hi all,

We have implement an ERP using Progress db, I have to develop reports using Query Editor, is there any other reporting tool like crystal reports, which I can use to develop reports using Progress db.

Thank,

Minhaj.

Crystal Reports will work with Progress db, why not use that?
Also, why on earth did you use Progress, its such a crappy db (my humble opinion, yours may vary.)

Here is a link:

and another, to tips for improving performance using Crystal with Progress:

a list of white papers about it:

A great forum for help on the Crystal Reports end is at:

another forum, from the Progress DB side:

don't listen to anyone who tells you that you need a $$$$ odbc driver to connect - its included in your ProgressDB purchase.

If your question was what OTHER reporting software will work with Progress, there is ActiveReports:

If this didn't answer your question, please clarify your question - thanks!!!
