More than likely Crystal 9.0 was written with pgsql 7.2.x in mind, and
doesn't know that 7.3.x has schema support.

In general, when there's a problem with Crystal Reports and some other
piece of software, the problem is usually with Crystal Reports.  I'm not
being sarcastic, it's honestly been my experience that Crystal Reports is
a pretty rigid / inflexible program that doesn't integrate well with
things it wasn't programmed to directly integrate with.
