I would like to reuse the sql from a previously developed report, but I no longer have the ability to connect to the database from which the report was created. Is anybody aware of a way to view the sql command of a report w/o database connectivity?

TIA,
Chris
 
I just tested and verified that you don't have to connect to the database the SQL was written against in order to read it, you just have to connect to any database. As long as you don't click on OK when you're finished viewing the SQL, you can get to it.
