Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Reporting:
Report Builder Deployment

Overriding database connection information

The following example, rbdbconn.p, illustrates how to override the database connection for a report. If the report was saved with a local database in single-user mode and you want to override it with a remote database in multi-user mode, run the rbdbconn.p procedure.

Here is the rbdbconn.p procedure:

rbdbconn.p

RUN aderb\_printrb( "c:\dlc\src\aderb\rbsample.prl", /* RB-REPORT-LIBRARY */ "Accts Receivable", /* RB-REPORT-NAME */ "sports = -db sports -H newhost -S newserver -N TCP", /* RB-DB-CONNECTION */ "", /* RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS */ "", /* RB-FILTER */ "", /* RB-MEMO-FILE */ "", /* RB-PRINT-DESTINATION */ "", /* RB-PRINTER-NAME */ "", /* RB-PRINTER-PORT */ "", /* RB-OUTPUT-FILE */ 0, /* RB-NUMBER-COPIES - zero */ 0, /* RB-BEGIN-PAGE - zero */ 0, /* RB-END-PAGE - zero */ no, /* RB-TEST-PATTERN */ "", /* RB-WINDOW-TITLE */ yes, /* RB-DISPLAY-ERRORS */ yes, /* RB-DISPLAY-STATUS */ no, /* RB-NO-WAIT */ ""). /* RB-OTHER-PARAMETERS */

Note: If you are using the PRNTRB2 interface you must modify the procedure to run aderb\_prntrb2 and include the RB-STATUS-FILE parameter.
