Data Source Change¶

When an existing ODBC-based report is opened, it is possible that the data source is no longer accessible. The server might have been renamed or replaced, and the user ID and/or password may be invalid. Some ODBC drivers display a dialog on error that allows you to correct the current link to the data source, but this information is not returned to DataFlex Reports Studio. Consequently, a refresh after fixing the connection results in the same problems.

The proper way to resolve this issue is to go to Set Data Source Location, change the connection information, save the report definition, and continue.
