CR and Network

[mans]

Hello,

I am using Crystal reports 4.6.1.0 with VB6 and Access2000. This is the first time I have networked Crystal Reports (and the application and database). The reports, application and database is installed on a shared directory between two terminals, which is the hard drive of one of the terminals. The reports work well on the host terminal but the reports on the other terminal display data from a database I used on my development machine (different to user database). The code in the application looks for the reports and database wherever the user installs them.

Sample Code
.ReportFileName = App.Path & "\report.rpt"
.DataFiles(0) = App.Path & "\database.rpt"

I would appreciate it if someone can let me know why the reports on the non-hosting terminal are not functioning properly.

Thank You

You might have data saved with the report, and that would give you the behavior you describe. Check the file menu and shut this feature off.
