This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
If it is a SQL database then you should be investigating the PUSH model, where you grab the information from the database no matter what location....and you populate your crystal report from a dataset...this way the crystal report is not dependant on the location of the database...

Good Luck!
