I am using unmanaged reports for url reporting and would like to be able to dynamically change the database. Lets say my report is pointing at warehouse. I would like the user to be able to run the report using warehouse or warehousedev. Is this possible? Or do I have to have seperate reports for each DSN.
 
Hi,
IIRC, the datasource is not one of the items that can be passed in the URL..
Go to the crystaldecisions support site and search for this document to download..It contains the commands and prompts you can pass in the URL..

Which version of CE are you using?

In ce8.5 this is only possible using the RAS component. I beleive you cn change the source in ce9.
