CR Copy changes shown in Original 1

[Toshilap]

It is stupid but I have to confess.
I copied my CR and Renamed it and worked on it and when I opened Original - all changes applied to originaland now I have 2 same exactly Reports.
There is no way to restore Original, is there?

It is no problem except time consuming.
Ever happened to anyone? bet not;(

Hi,
Of course not, we are all perfect..It is just you

Sadly there is, as you suspected, no way to go back to the 'original' unless you are using some kind of version control and can find a previous version, before your changes..

Thanks to you - it feels better.

One thing that I do is regularly make a backup copy of my file of Crystal reports. Put it somewhere on my C drive so that I can go back to an older version if necessary.

I also tend to use Save As before doing any change, which means I have automatically left behind a copy of whatever I was working on. I dump them into a folder called 'Old Versions' and they are there if needed.

Worth training yourself to do such things, as I did after losing work to various ssytem problems.
