I have attached a document which outlines how to create a SQL Specific Pass Through Query. This process was originally designed for use with UPS World Ship and the document was started by Alnoor Cassim. I just filled it out adding the part about the Query. Using a pass through query speeds up reports because it by passes almost all levels of the ODBC driver and issues the call directly to the server. A Crystal report based on a pass through query is noticeably faster than a Crystal report based on the SOTAMAS90 DSN. Hope this helps everyone
