I think Stuart had a typo ...   
Since the ODBC uses the Remedy application server, if you can't see something 
in Remedy you can't see it using the ODBC driver.

One way around the join limitation is to use sub-reports in Crystal.  You can 
then have multiple form(s) data in the report

The main limitation is that you can perform joins in the query using the
OBDC driver. If you need to join tables together you need to build them
in Remedy first and then use in your report.

The other restriction/feature is that the driver uses the Remedy data
security model - so if you can't see something using Remedy you can see
it in a report.
