I don't have the saved report, but I need to fix it so that it can be used. I could build a new report, but I need to know what DB fields are being used because it uses several tables. Is it possible to convert back to a saved report or look into it to see what tables/fields the data comes from?

An RSL file cannot be recovered from an RDL file. You have to rebuild. But, you can use the enum methods to learn a lot about the RDL - see the help file.
You don't say what version of Pdx you're using. In version 8, the following code might be useful:
method run(var eventInfo Event)
var
rpt report
ui uiObject
tv tableview
endVar
if not rpt.open(":REPORTS:COMPOSEX.RDL"
then
errorShow()
return
endif
ui.attach(rpt)
rpt.enumDataModel("RIV:TRASH1.DB"
ui.enumUIObjectProperties("RIV:TRASH2.DB"
rpt.close()
tv.open ("RIV:TRASH1.DB"
tv.open ("RIV:TRASH2.DB"
endMethod
