Rename TppDBPipeline

mgm_entw

Hello!

I must rename some Pipelines and UserName in our App (see below). Is there a way to convert the customers reports to the new pipename and UserName?

pipeData: TppDBPipeline;
pipeData.UserName := 'DataOld';
pipeData.Name := 'pipeDataNew';
pipeData.UserName := 'DataNew';

Hi Thomas,

There are a couple options here:

1. After loading a template, run a conversion routine that alters the report's datapipeline property and then loops through each band (report object loop) and alters the DataPipeline property for all data-aware components.

2. Create a simple utility that loads each report template as text and alters the pipeline name as needed. Since you know the name of the old pipeline, this should be a simple "find and replace" operation.
