How do I see data source structure modifications?

Hello everybody,

I have a report (8.5) that uses SQL server view as source. It uses all its fields, plus a huge number of formulas. Rewriting it or editing all formulas by hand would be very bad idea...

Since then, view has been rewritten, adding more fields. Now I need to use these fields. However, new fields are not shown.

How do I make Crystal Reports reread data source structure?

Thanks in advance!
 
You need to verify your data source. Click on database, verify database, and crystal "reads" the new database info. If you have changed any field names of fieldson your report, Crystal will prompt you to go through an old field to new field mapping process.
