Crystal Report Source Code

[GMAN33]

Hi Gang

We are implementing CR thoughout our company globally and I wanted to know if there were any ideas on how to handle source code. We want to have control over modifications to the reports and want to keep track of who does what to them. Any ideas on a management system for this type of situation?

Thanks

[Special Fields] include date modified and time modified. Also you can copy the folder of Crystal reports, as a backup and also to note what gets changed.

You could have each developer working in their own area from a copy of anything that needs to be created or changed. The 'master copies' could be elsewhere, or old versions kept as a backup.

Good idea to have backups, regardless. Crystal reports occasionally get corrupted and become unusable. It's then a great help to have something, even if it is out of date.
