Hi,

I have created number of Crystal Reports in My VB.NET Project getting data from Microsoft Access 2007 (.accdb) Database.

Now, I am updating My Application with Microsoft SQL Server (.mdf)Database.

How Can I Update the Data Source From Access Files To MDF Files For All of My Crystal Reports?

Thanks.
