I have a Crystal Reports 2008 report that was written using an Oracle 32bit driver on Windows XP. <br />
I just upgraded my pc to windows server 2008 and tried reinstalling the Oracle Driver, but wasn't able to.<br />
After doing some research, I have noticed that Crystal Reports 2008 is not compatible with Windows Server 2008 64bit.<br />
<br />
I have a couple of questions.<br />
1. Does oracle support a 32bit driver for Crystal Reports on Windows Server 2008?<br />
2. If all parties are supported, are there any addtional settings, permission or patches I need to have in place to get this report to work.<br />
<br />
Thank you<br />

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.

Oracle is an object-relational database management system. It supports a large number of languages and application development frameworks. Its primary languages are SQL, PL/SQL and Java, but it also includes support for C and C++. Oracle also has its own enterprise modules and application server software.
