History
ColdFusion MX 7: Added support for the ColdFusion Report Builder.
ColdFusion MX: Changed data source connection behavior: Crystal Reports now establishes an
independent connection to the data source. The connection is not subject to any ColdFusion data
source-specific restrictions. For example, the Crystal Reports server can access a data source,
regardless of whether it is disabled in the ColdFusion MX Administrator.
