Hello,

I have a following question : -

A report is created in Crystal Report application which has "set
location" defined where an access .mdb file is located.

I save the file as test.rpt.  I am also able to invoke this report by
using the crystal report control in vb 4.0.

I would like to know how can i define in vb 4.0 (before it uses test.rpt
on the screen) to make sure the path where access .mdb is defined
previously is correct. If not correct then how i can implement so it
will know the correct path of an access .mdb file.

Thanks in advance

In the code to print your report, add the followinf before you invoke
printing:

    Report1.DataFiles(x) = db$

Where x is a number starting at 0 and incremented for each table in your
report and db$ is a string containing the full path to the database.

You need to do this for each table you reference in your report.  

===================================================

I never assume that the data path is the same, in fact I always store the
data path to the Access databases in the registry. Then it's a simple
matter to pass this value to CrytalReport1.DataFiles(0).
