I am trying to make changes to the report that is in production by making a copy and connecting to development database. When i try to set the database login info dynamically using vb.net the report still connects to the production.
Dim cr As New crptInvoice() Dim crtableLogoninfos As New TableLogOnInfos Dim crtableLogoninfo As New TableLogOnInfo Dim crConnectionInfo As New ConnectionInfo Dim crTables As Tables Dim crTable As Table 'Get database connection info With crConnectionInfo .ServerName = My.Settings.DevConnectionString.Split(";")(0).Split("=")(1) .DatabaseName = My.Settings.DevConnectionString.Split(";")(1).Split("=")(1) .UserID = My.Settings.DevConnectionString.Split(";")(3).Split("=")(1) .Password = My.Settings.DevConnectionString.Split(";")(4).Split("=")(1) End With 'Set database connection for all tables in report crTables = cr.Database.Tables For Each crTable In crTables crtableLogoninfo = crTable.LogOnInfo crtableLogoninfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crtableLogoninfo) Next ' Loop through each section and find report objects Dim crReportobjects As ReportObjects, crSubReportobject As SubreportObject, subReportDocument As ReportDocument Dim crDatabase As Database Dim crSections As Sections = cr.ReportDefinition.Sections For Each crSection As Section In crSections crReportobjects = crSection.ReportObjects For Each crReportobject As ReportObject In crReportobjects If crReportobject.Kind = ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject Then ' If a subreport is found cast as subreportobject crSubReportobject = CType(crReportobject, SubreportObject) ' Open the sub report subReportDocument = crSubReportobject.OpenSubreport(crSubReportobject.SubreportName) crDatabase = subReportDocument.Database crTables = crDatabase.Tables ' Loop through each table in the sub report and set the connection info For Each crTable In crTables crtableLogoninfo = crTable.LogOnInfo crtableLogoninfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crtableLogoninfo) Next End If Next Next
The report still connects to ProdDB rather than DevDB. What am i doing wrong? This used to work with VS2008 and after the upgrade to VS2012. Its not working.
