Hello

i am using (vb6.0 + crystal report 8.0 + sql server2000)
We have developed a report in crystal that connects with our local database. After development we want to deploy the same to our clients with different data soruce name and data base name.

Presently we are taking each report file and configuring the client database by replacing the existing data source.

How can we achieve this programmatically thru VB?

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

Pass command line parameter from your application,

eg. Myapp.exe <newserver> <newdsn>

use the parameter string to your vb code.

yours friendly,
