Can Crystal Reports be used along side PHPRunner with a MySQL database to produce reports?

Hi
You can link to your MYSQL database by creating an ODBC datasouce by downloading the following driver...
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/3.51.html
You will then need to set up a new ODBC driver from the control panel (administrative tools)
This will enable you to see the data in Crystal Reports - when you create a new report select create new connection and then select ODBC (RDO) and you will be able to select your database.
Sorry is this is telling what you already know and this is not what you meant.

Thanks Gareth.
Alot of that was new info, WHat I really wanted to do was create an Invoice looking sheet with crystal reports that gets all the info from my PHPRunner Project, as I was having trouble with Frontpage, but I have now realised it was the cell width's that were giving me problems.
Cheers
