Hi,
I'm using "Crystal Reports for Visual Studio" version 13.0.13.1597 with C#/.Net 4.5. I'm connection to an Oracle database and I'm searching for a way to remove the schema information of the report.
Scenario:
We create reports for customers using our development database (schema "X"). Apparently Crystal Reports stores this information and when the SQL is generated, the tables are fully qualified, eg. "X.CUSTOMERS" as "CUSTOMERS". This is kind of an issue because we have several databases for testing (with the same database tables, views, etc, but different data). When we start our application we can specify start parameters to tell the application to which database (read: schema) it should connect, e.g. "TestDB1", "TestDB2", etc. The report connects to the desired database (via 3713954 - Changing server/database of a report in code), but of course it now should use the tables of that schema, not "X" which was used when creating the report.
I found 3713954 - Overridden Qualified Table Name issue which sounds like a similar request, but it's quite old and the outcome is not applicable for my scenario. I've already experimented with CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table.Location, but without success (also, setting location always performs a "VerifyDatabase", so it's pretty slow)
I guess what I'd actually like to set is CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table.RasTable.QualifiedName, but the "RasTable" is not publicly accessible.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Markus
