The native connectivity is definitely faster, and it resolves the Verify Database issue. However, the report is still not grouping on server for me, and it is still accessing the database when it doesn't need to, like when I change a font size on a column header.

I am using Crystal Reports 10, and reporting off an Oracle 9 database using the Oracle ODBC driver. While I am creating the report, it is successfully performing its grouping on the server. Once I close the report and re-open it, it no longer groups on server. If I try to verify the database...

I solved it: I have version 10.0.5.600 of u2ftext.dll. My registry has two keys under HKCU/Software/Crystal Decisions/10.0/Crystal Reports/Export/Text. One of them is CharPerInch, and the other is PromptAgain. PromptAgain was set to 0, so CR10 wasn't asking me my preference on CharPerInch...

Hmm. I am running Crystal 10 with the most recent service pack installed. I'll check to make sure I've got the correct export dll.

I found the registry setting to change the characters per inch, and that did the trick. It was set to 9, and I changed it to 12, and now it works. I wish I could set the characters per inch during the export process rather than in the registry.

I'm having a similar problem. I've switched my printer to one that can accomodate 34 inch wide paper, but if I extend the text object past 22 inches, the object won't export at all as text--it is completely left off the export. What's going on?
