in my vb.net windows application i made a setup for the application from my development system
the application is having reports generated with inbuilt crystal report

the setup takes the the datasource server name as my   development system
& is working fine

but wehn i deploy it to the cleint system the application  without crystal report works fine
i made changes in the app.config file of the client & set it datasource to their sql server name
but when i try to open the report teh datasource takes my  development system name  & its disabled
& it aslo ask me for userid & password

i tried by creating a setup using mergemodule & ran the setup on client machine
but stil the same issue

Hi svibuk.
I have a simalar issue. It seems that your datasource gets compiled in the .rpt file. The only way so far to fix this, is to change each .rpt manually to the new sql server
