    Hi all I have created crystal reports in vb.net using SQLEXPRESS database. I have now converted the SQLEXPRESS database to a normal SQL SERver database. This new database has all the same tables and table names but the database name is different (Cannot be changed). I have changed the database source for the reports via Datbase expert but when running the report it still gives the error that it cannot find the datasource and references the old database name. Can anyone please tell me how to fix this error or where to change the reference to the old database?

      Where is the data source/connection string being stored?
