[Koha] Access Koha database tables for Crystal Reports

[e-Libris Helpdesk]

Iming,

You need to configure Crystal Reports with a connect string to the database
that you are using.  Typically that would include the server name or IP
address, ID to log in to the database, and the password.  This will connect
to the database and allow you to view the tables and columns.

There should be an option under a tools or other menu selection.

Hope this helps.
