David,
I think you have the emphasis on the wrong party here. IBM U2 is the
database not the reporting tool. I don't think it is IBM's responsibility

There is, unfortunately, a question of market power here.
If Access and SQL-Server talk to each other, even if they use a *broken*
version of SQL to do so, the market place will expect other databases and
clients to talk

Hu, IBM doesn't have market power? Maybe someone should
tell them. On the Fortune 500 IBM is 15 and Microsoft is 44.

(Dead topic for this group?)
Despite claims and efforts, U2 is not IBM, where DB2 is.
IBM's honorable influence doesn't drive all vendors for every bit

I agree with you 100% Tony from the independence makes things 'better' for
people who are platform agnostic -- we're talking a 100% UniData

I wanted to send a note on this much earlier

If IBM knows CR has not worked right since Version 9 you would think
IBM would have adapted their interface to strip quotes...
Obviously CR running in other OLE-DB environments IS compliant.

I looked at that SQL and thought what's wrong with double quotes? (but
then I don't know SQL that well). I thought quoting field names was
mandatory if they contained spaces and optional otherwise. Or should

SELECT FIELDS FROM TABLE_ASSOC TABLE_ASSOC could just as well read

Exactly. Doing it WITHOUT an AS keyword (as is happening in my case) will cause
it to blow up.

I agree with you 100% Tony from the independence makes things 'better' for
people who are platform agnostic -- we're talking a 100% UniData solution in
all cases, and the issue we're seeing more and more is that prospects want to
see that the 'core engine' supports the ability to use BI tools
We do have one client using UniData against Crystal Reports. We use ODBC for
the connection and I'm not sure which version of CR they are using - but it
does seem to work well.

That said, before I actually told the client Im working with that
David, the best approach may be more indirect. This is another
reason why I keep trying to discourage the more direct interfaces
between MV-specific SQL tools.
Rather than trying to bind CR or any reporting tools to U2,
create a Data Access Layer (DAL) that you're comfortable with
using any
