    Posted: 02 Dec 2009 at 10:40am
Hello,
 
I have a report that was pointing to our UAT database.  I opened Database -> Set Database Location and updated the source to our QA database.
 
When I expand the report and sub report properties I see that the Catalog has changed to QA.  But when I expand the tables, they're still pointing to UAT.  So, when I look at my SQL the tables still have UAT as an alias.
 
How do I change my tables to point to the same database catalog? 
 
I would have thought that if I changed the source for the report then the change would have cascaded to all the tables but it doesn't seem to be the case.
Thanks,
Paul

I tend to update each item rather than assuming that a top-level change will get propogated. A pain? Sure, but at least then I know each item is pointed where I intend it to be.
 
I've learned better than to trust Crystal doing something that makes sense. Tongue
