Large quantities of alcohol often help. <g>
I wouldn't advise you to go to the client and ask them to buy Crystal.
But I do think you can go to them and inform them that Graphics is an
obsolete tool unsup****ted by Oracle during the current millennium and
incompatible with sup****ted versions of the database.
Question, in a polite manner of course, the wisdom of investing money
into developing something that is unsup****ted, obsolete, and has no
future.
Never make a technology argument when a financial argument will suffice.
