Q: 

Using MySQL Connector/NET with VS2008 Crystal Reports Basic

I'm having difficulty getting crystal report to load data from a MySQL DB. I am using the Connector/NET and have a DataSet in the project which can access the data just fine. I am able to set the report data source to a DataTable from the DataSet. Crystal reports seems to know all about the column information, as I can create fields etc..

The trouble is when I run the report in VS preview mode I see only some "fake" data. At run-time there in no data displayed at all!

Thanks in advance for any advice.
