Crystal Reports and 5.2

I posted a thread on this a few weeks ago.

If you are taking the upgrade (lower cost) approach to move from Crystal
V8.0, you are expected to but the upgrade to V9, and then buy a downgrade to
V8.5 for an additional $25.00.

Version 9 uses Unicode and does not have any ability to save to earlier
versions, similarly V8.5 only saves as 8.5 or back to 7, not 8!

Confusing isn't it!!

You can still use 8.0 with Vantage 5.2. Up until a couple of months ago
we
were using it exclusively. Just make sure that you have downloaded all of
the updates from support.crystaldecisions.com and 8.0 will work just fine
for you. As far as 9.0 there are still some serious errors with Crystal
Reports and Progress. It does work, but there are numerous errors that
can
and do occur in the everyday use of v9. I would hold off on it until v9
is
ready.

If you look into your instructions it tells you that you have to have
atleast 8.5 installed for Crystal Reports. So 9.0 should work.

Can you use Crystal Report 8.0 with 5.2? If not how about 9.0? We
currently have 8.0 in house - I can only buy 9.0 currently.

I found this website that says it has upgrades to 8.5 available. Our CFO is
working on getting it, but haven't heard if he's been successful.
