Hi,

Can anybody suggest how to query a number of SQLBase databases on 1 report.


We have a patient management system which requires a database for each site, consequently I have data in 25 databases which I need to query.

I pressume I would have a report with some form of subreport which is displayed per database.

Can someone suggest how best to do this with regards to data access??


Do I need to create a Crystal Query for each database or can I implement the data access/connection in code / functions ??


Any pointers would be greatly appreciated, thanks

If you can link across databases in SQLBase (if not you can do this from MS Access via ODBC) then you can use a single UNION query to combine the data from multiple sites into a single data set.
