Hi all:
We are trying to replace FoxPro reports with CR8.5, Developer's edition. We will call the reports through the crystal32.ocx control. We created a report with using an alias for the Fox2.x table it reports on. Here's the thing: We need to be able to dynamically change the physical file name and location for each user. The reports are part of a Visual FoxPro app distributed to customers worldwide. FoxPro knows the physical file name. How can it tell the .ocx that the file is associated with a particular alias? There will be several tables per report. To avoid installation headaches, we want to steer clear of ODBC as the data source.
TIA,
Dan Walter
