    Posted: 12 Feb 2009 at 2:36pm
I am a VB programmer by trade, and just started using Crystal Reports within the Visual Studio 2005 development suite.

I am impressed with CR and will be using it a lot more from now on.

I' not sure if many people her are VB programmers, but I have a Crystal Report that reads data in from a DataView that is created in VB.

One of the field names in the DataView is changing. [IssuedBy] is becoming [IssuedByName].

What I would like to do is click the [IssuedBy] field on my Crystal Report, go to Properties, and find an area where I can make the change to the field name that it expects to find from its data source.

I can't seem to find it though!

Any suggestions?

If I were reading directly from a database, I would browse to it in the database and insert a new copy of the field.

But I can't browse a DataView that I build in code.

Can anyone help?

I just realized that there is an entire section of this forum devoted to .net programming. So I have reposted my question over there instead. . . .
