I have designed the reports using one SQL Server. Now when i call this report from my VB application it works fine. when i set the Logonserver property of the database for a different SQLserver it still displays the data from the old server on which i had designed the report. Can anuy body tell me how do i get data to get displayed on this report from any SQL server from a VB application. I have designed the reports using p2ssql.dll. And i also don't want to use the DSN.

Yes I had used a different technique for this dsn kind of problem. I changed my report driver to ADO/DAO/RDS type. Now i pass recordset instead of selection formula from my vb application to the report. So now i m only using Crystal Reports to Display the data sent from my application instead od it to first process and then display. Bcz i have abut a million records in the database and this method is the fastest one that i have seen.
