I've just installed the .NET Framework 2.0 and have lost the ADO.NET
provider that I used in the Crystal Reports Designer (Version 9).

I used to see the ADO.NET (XML) as a data source provider but it is now
missing.

Can anyone tell me how to get this data source provider back?

Hi Steve,

This DataSource seems to be the specific for Crystal report. There might be
some change in the Crystal Report assemblies. In this case, I suggest you
try to contact the Crystal Report support on this issue. Here is their
website.

I use VS 2003 profession and Crystal Reports 9. I usually create report in
crystal reports directly then print the report from VS 2003.

I can't find the ADO.NET provider either in Crystal Report 9 design after
installing VS 2005 standard version.

The way I figure out to solve this probelm is to create report inside VS
2003. Just Add new item ->Crystal report, then verything is back to normal,
ADO.NET (XML) is there again.
