Thank-you but I also need an answer to the second question so that I know what to plan for in my next release.

Hi Ed,

Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 will be released later this month and will support Windows Server 2008.

We know that XIR2 SP5 will not support Windows Server 2008, as it will only be released as an incremental patch and we only like to add major new OS support in patches that have both full and incremental builds.

We will reconsider this requirement for XIR2 SP6, but for now the shortest path to support for Windows Server 2008 is to use Crystal Reports 2008 SP1.
