Two part question:
I am wondering if it is generally good practice to develop one's reports against a 'test' database and then once they are how you want them, point them to a production database.
Is it even possible to move a report to another database without loosing all the fields?
It seems like it ought to be, (I mean people convert reports all the time, right?) so I'm probably missing something very obvious. I'm unable to test this question right now, but will be able to hopefully in a few weeks. In the meantime, if anybody just knows the answer/procedure or any pitfalls to beware of, that'd be great.
Thanks!
