Slow or unresponsive database connections when using Crystal Reports 11 corrected in system-wide fix

Time-outs and slow responses when accessing 10g databases with Crystal Reports have been eliminated. There is no need to maintain ODBC connections as a data source. Furthermore, it is now recommended that only native Oracle connections be used for Crystal Reports, i.e., New Reports > Standard Report Creation Wizard, then expand Create New Connection and select "Oracle Server."
