Hi all:
I am newbie using the Crystal Report.  
 
I created a tables, Views and SPs from SQL-Server 2000 Development Environment & let Crystal report linking to those tables & export the custom format reports into PDF format.  Then email the PDF files to the clients.
 
But my question is if I migrate all those tables, Views and SPs from SQL-Server 2000 Development Environment to Production Environment with the same scheme.    What is the easy way to change the database connectivity from Dev to Prod?  
 
Do I have to use the 'Set DataSource Location' or 'Database Expert' to re-link the tables for each individual reports (with subreports)?
 
Many Thanks

You should be able to use Set DataSource Location, but I've heard that there are issues with it and stored procedures (I don't use SPs in my reports, so I've never had the issue.)
