Hi, when I try to start making a report from scratch in Crystal, first I set a connection data source with SAS data files and then when I move a field of this sets it's appera a message error; "Failed to retrieve data from the database.", and after click OK appere another error message; "Error Code: 08x00a0bb9, Source: ADODB.Command, Descrition: Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another."

Anyboy who help me??

Hi

Are you facing this issue with a particular SAS data file? and are the arguments provided compatible with the datatypes defined?

Which version of CR are you using ?

Please let me know the above information.So that I can proceed further.

Thanks

I created a ODBC share to get access into the SAS data sets. The problem is resolved. Thanks.
