We are using a 3rd party HR Tool (NuView) and are creating custom reports in Crystal. The source data is a csv file. In order for NuView to process the Crystal Report it REQUIRES that the:
- csv file name
- datasource name in Crystal
- the report name
be the same.
For example, if it was a report on ADDRESSES – Address.csv, Address#csv.fieldname, Address.rpt
Here’s our dilemma – we are creating some complex reports and want to REUSE them. So, we want to take an existing CR report and copy it and then * CHANGE THE DATASOURCE * name – and we can not figure out how to to this?!?
We can change the source file (e.g., Address.csv) and the report name – but for some reason can not figure out how (or if it is possible) to change the Address#csv (which I’m calling the datasource name.
Just trying to save our dev staff some time from having to re-create very similar reports from scratch. We are using MS ACCESS/Jet to read the csv file (per NuView)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
