Hi Clayton,

I am basically incorporating Crystal Reports 11 into an existing c++ 
project. Previously we had used a component from a company called Suprasoft, 
which allowed us to pass a TDataSet to report templates and using TTX files 
we could display our reports accordingly. In this way we did not have to 
specify the data location when designing the reports.

However (!), we now are faced with using Crystal Reports 11, which requires 
that data be passed to the reports as an ADO recordset. Because it is an 
existing project, all datasets are created and ideally we would like a way 
to work from the existing datasets - we do not want to change all TDataSet 
components to TADODataSets and also we do not want to have to generate these 
datasets twice (once to populate our TDataSet, and once to populate a 
TADODataSet). Hopefully this is making sense?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - I have a very limited 
knowledge of ADO objects, sorry for my ignorance on this subject!

Thanks in advance,
Sinead
