Import/Export End User Report to Database Tables

rbuser

Hi!


I created a report using the report explorer that we created for the end
user. I have since decided to "place" the report template into the database
(SQL7) tables instead of the rbitem, rbfolder, etc of the end user tables.

I loaded the the report in the end user (Report Explorer) design environment
and did a "Save to File" to store the *.rtm file on my hard drive.

I then placed a Report Component on a form in the application and tried to
do a "Load from File". It loaded except the data tab that has the "Result
set" will not display the data. I get an error message that reads

Invalid alia DCmedman.

DCmedman was the alias the end user report explorer used for its stuff.

How do I get the data to now look at a different database component. It
seems to be embedded in the rtm. I could not figure out how to delete the
stuff off of the data tab and rebuild it either.

I don't want to have to rebuild the header, detail, footer bands on the
report itself?


Any suggestions??


thanks,
