title: Crystal Reports 8 connection string
body: <p>I have installed Crystal Reports 2008 on my Windows PC at work. </p>
  
  <p>We have an internal MySQL server which has data which we need to access. I have the IP address, port, user, password and database-name. </p>
  
  <p>When I fire up Crystal Reports, and run the Report Creation wizard, it gave me a slew of ways to connect to various data sources, but not MySQL. I tried ODBC, but it asked for a connection string. How do you make a proper connection string for MySQL? Is ODBC even the right way to go?</p>
  
  <p>How do I connect this thing to MySQL?</p>
