Hi,
Would like to print the name of the datasource (or data connection) in the header of a CR report. The report connects using either Oracle native connectivity or an ODBC DSN. Is there a CR variable that I can use that would show this information? As of now, I have to create a command that will query a system table in the Oracle database which contains the instance name. Would like not to use this solution if there is a CR variable to use or another means of retrieving the information.
Thanks, Rivdog
