Moving to new server problem #2 - DRW when switching connection

S

Steve Simek

Here's an odd one. I have SQL on my new server, coming from Access on the
old. I think the ODBC connection is ok, seems to test ok. However, now I'm
trying to get the DRW to use the new connection. In my old server, at the
end of modifying the DRW it says "Do you want to regen"? I say no becuz the
report is nicely formatted my way. On the new server, I change connect to
SQL, and run thru DRW, but it always regens without asking. Major wrecking
of format. I tried to edit connect code, but FP yells at me. I'm editing
table, but no luck so far.
Why is it regenning without asking this time and what are my other options?
TIA

Don't use the wizards

- hand code your connection and DB output
