Topic: setting userid password servername for crystal rep Posted: 02 Feb 2011 at 8:06pm
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 how do i open crystal report by taking the connection string specified in app.config

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
