Crystal Reports and stored procedures with parameters

I work with Crystal Report 2008 sp2, and during creation of a new report template I've encountered a problem. I created a stored procedure, which prepares and pivots needed data on the server side, and filters it using a parameter.

When I try to add this stored procedure to the report template in Crystal Editor, I receive SQL error 102 - incorrect syntax near ')'. Although I can easily add user defined function to my report with exactly the same param开发者_C百科eter.

What could be the source of the problem?

P.S. Stored procedure does run and return correct data if I run it in the SSMS.

As long as you are returning a record set from the store procedure try using a command object

in the command object:

EXEC mystoredProc ({?variable1}, {?variable2})

The "exec mystoredProc()" was a good try, but didn't work for me.

Crystal to/from Oracle 10g SPs is kicking MY butt... I've worked every example from BOXI/SAP, a couple from the web, and from "Crystal Reports 9 on Oracle", and all I get are Crystal's/Oracle's error messages.

The latest is "Object Specified is incompatible with the flag specified." ORA-04047, with an ORA-20004 and an Ora-06512 thrown in for good measure.

I'm trying to get the simplest SP return for a beginning... Just give me the Select * results from a table.

Any hints?

I've tried the Oracle native (client) drivers, The Oracle ODBC drivers... I haven't gotten the Crystal Oracle drivers to work, tho'. Depending upon the driver I'm using, I can get PLS-00302 - Component must be declared.

I've written and re-written these things over and over. Right now, I'm not a happy Oracle camper. MS SQL was sooo much easier.
