Hi,

I have hundreds of cystal reports in which I need to change the database driver.
Right now I have to open each .rpt file in Crystal Reports and go to
"Database" -> "Convert Database Driver" menu to change the driver (name string).

The problem is, I have to do this one report at a time.
Is there a tool/utility that can do this for all the reports at once?

Thanks,
Sarah

I've not tried it myself but .rpt inspector should be able to do this:

Another option is to build such a utility yourself. You can access the
datasources of the reports through the RDC (COM interfaces).
