I need to find the SQL that generated a Crystal Report. All I had was the report definition file and Visual Studio 2008.
After creating a new DSN (
Windows XP users click here for instructions) I opened up the report in VS and clicked the Crystal Reports menu at the top. Then Database -> Show SQL Query. A wizard will popup, click the Back button, choose the newly created DSN for your database and then click Next. Login with your credentials and click Finish. Whalla (spelling??) I now see the previously hidden SQL.
