I have a report that works fine in CR 8.5.  But when I open it in CR 11 one of the tables does not show up.  I get the error:  Failed to retrieve data from the database.  Invalid table name.  At first the table did not show up at all.  Then I added it.  But I get the same error.
Thanks,
Brooks

Step #1:  Go to Database > Verify Database.  See if that fixes it.

Step #2:  Go to Database > Set Datasource Location.  Update all the data sources.  See if that fixes it.

Step #3:  Create a new report, from scratch, using the same data.  See if it works.  If this works, you may have corrupted your report during the upgrade.  It may be better, at this point, to drop back and punt.  Just re-create the report from scratch.
