How to create Database from RPT ?

[Ajith2002]

How do we create a database from RPTs ? You'll be given a set of RPTs from which you need to create a database.
What are the possible ways to do this ?

Thanks very much.

Hi Ajith,

I'm not quite understand what you want. Do you mean create database in report designer or logon to back-end database in runtime?

If in report designer environment, you need to go to report expert then step by step.

If in runtime, you need to use logonserver or setlogoninfo to logon.

Other than that, I'm not sure what you want

Cheers!

Ted

Crystal can't create a database. The closest it can come is exporting to a single table. Ken Hamady, On-site Custom Crystal Reports Training & Consulting

I dont have much details. This question has been asked in one of the interview.
I am wondering whether we could create a database using the RPTs provided by any chance.

You can export a report to ODBC which creates a single table.
