Different databases. Store settings/reports in one and run reports against another?

edited August 2003 in General
Hi.

Is it possible to have one database to store reports in and that contains
rb_folder, rb_item, rb_table, rb_field and rb_join.
While defining reports to be runned against another database?

I want to use Firebird to store my settings and define reports against
Access, Dbase...

Thanks in advance, Magnus

    Hi Magnus,

    ReportBuilder does not support using two databases for the end-user
    solution. The rb_folder and rb_item tables hold the folder structure and
    BLOB template fields. These tables have to reside on the database that the
    other tables are as they all work together. I would suggest storing all
    information on your Firebird database.
