Problem changing SQL data source at runtime with VB6 and CR XI

Hello All,
We have several VB6 programs using CR XI and are able to pass a DSN to change data source with Access DB that works just fine.
We are using similar code in another program to change the data source in an SQL DB and get an error... Failed to Open the Connection.
This is a sample of what works with Access but not SQL DB:
Dim crxApplication As New CRAXDRT.Application
Public Report As CRAXDRT.Report
Global DSN_STRING
DSN_STRING = "DSN = JC Crystal Reports"
Dim crxDatabaseTable As CRAXDRT.DatabaseTable
Set Report = crxApplication.OpenReport(App.Path & "\Test11.rpt", 1)
'change location of each table in report
For Each crxDatabaseTable In Report.Database.Tables
        crxDatabaseTable.Location = DSN_STRING
Next crxDatabaseTable
FormCrystal.Show vbModal
We have tried other things from the web, still get error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Carole,
When using SQL types you need more than just the DSN name. CR does keep the password in the report file and all SQL types are usually password protected.
Try this simple code:
First log onto the server:
rpt.database.LogOnServerEx("crdb_odbc.dll, pServerName, [pDatabaseName], [pUserID], [pPassword], [pServerType], [pConnectionString])
The ConnectionString is the complete line. Run in debug mode and display what the reprot is using and you can see the format it requires.
Once logged on now you can set the location for each table:
'report connection properties
        With rpt.Database.Tables(1)
            .ConnectionProperties("User ID").Value = "sa"
            .ConnectionProperties("Password").Value = "YourPassword"
            .ConnectionProperties("Data Source Name").Value = "Your DSN Name"
            '.ConnectionProperties("Data Source Name").Value = "ServerName" ' can be used if specifying a new connection
            .ConnectionProperties("Database").Value = "Northwind"
        End With
        Set rpt.Database.Tables(1).Location = "Northwind.dbo.CustOrderHist"
I'm only using one table so easy enough to create the loop or use for all...
Thank you

Change of date format to MM/DD/YYYY in ITS web HTML screen.

Hi all
I am facing problem in displaying date field on the HTML for the data coming from SAP back end.
Earlier my screen was also showing the date in the format MM/DD/YYYY but suddenly it started showing date in the format DD.MM.YYYY. I have not changed any code on the front end HTML side.
At sap back end the FM is returning the date in the format MM/DD/YYYY and same data i have to display on the HTML screen.
But it is not showing the data as in the back end format.
Please help me in resolving this issue. as it is bit Urgent.
Thanks
Ekta

Hi Tobias,
Thanks for the reply. I will see to your suggestion. Because the Custom login Id created for login to the service, needs to be checked whether the date format for that user may not be of the type DD/MM/YYYY.
Thanks a lot. I will let you know about it after checking.
Thanks & Regards
Ekta

How to change SQL data source in rule file

Hi there, I use many rule files to load dimension and data with EssbaseSQL interface. (100-200 rule files!).When need to cahnge information for data sources, do Ihave to change it always with EAS interactively ?Is there any way to cahnge the information of the data sourcesin batch mode or with command?

iitobs: There are API calls (in at least C and VB that I found) that can use a rule file, and even copy or create one, but none that will modify a rule in any way. Even the "create rule" API call simply reserves the name so that someone else can't create one with that same name until you manage to copy it over from somewhere else - it doesn't create a new rule file, nor does it allow you to set anything in the rule. You have to use EAS to manage rule files internally.

How canI change the date format from mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy in FirefoxOS?

I have just received and am trying out things my new Alcatel Fire E with FirefoxOS 2.0.0.0 (just updated).
It is usual in most operating systems to be able to customize the date and time settings (amongst other things). After a few fruitless hours fiddling with the phone and checking various forums, I've come to the conclusion that this is currently not possible on my phone with this version of FirefoxOS. Or have I simply missed something?

Can u please me the method of updating phone to 2.0

Since I don't have the old version anymore, the following might not be 100% accurate. Note that my device is in English.
Go to the Settings app and select "Device information". You can either choose "Check now" or select "System Updates" and then "Check for Updates". If there is an update available you'll be notified. What it won't tell you is which version the new one is, at least I did not recieve that information. I thoughT I was updating to 1.4.x, not 2.0.
You should be given the choice to either update or not. You can ignore the update if you want (like if you don't have the time, or something.
A couple of words of warning:
1. Make a backup of any important data first.
2. It takes quite some time to download all the update data and this might bust your limit depending on what your service provide allows. I avoided this by doing the update whilst connected to a WLAN (also known as WiFi) which has no data restriction. This can be set in "Check for Updates > Settings".
Hope that helps.

such as "select * from xx where somedate = '2004-12-31'
but when i show it to screen, i want to show it as dd-MM-yyyy
I m using the following to change the jave.util.Date to str and vice versa. But it cannot shows the dd-MM-yyyy. I tried to change the format from yyyy-MM-dd to dd-MM-yyyy, it shows the wrong date in my application.
     public String date2str(java.util.Date thisdate)     {
          if (thisdate != null)     {
               java.sql.Date thissDate = new java.sql.Date(thisdate.getTime());
               return date2str(thissDate);
          }     else     {
               return "";
     public String date2str(java.sql.Date thisdate)     {
          if (thisdate != null)     {
               SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
               return sdf.format(thisdate);
          }     else     {
               return "";

How to convert JAVA.SQL.DATE date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY

i am using informix database which accepts date value in the form of DATE format......
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD fromat into DD/MM/YYYY fromat of same type before inserting into db......
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........

Maybe you mean Informix (fronted by JDBC) expects date values as java.sql.Date objects?
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...
so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY format of same type before inserting into db......I am not sure why you are talking about formats here.
There is no formatting inherent in a java.util.Date object
nor in a java.sql.Date object.
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........You can easily create a java.sql.Date object from a java.util.Date object.
String s = "31/12/2010";
java.util.Date ud = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse(s);
java.sql.Date sd = new java.sql.Date(ud.getTime());
ud = sd; // java.sql.Date extends java.util.Date so no conversion is needed

Converting String foramt(yyyy-mm-dd) to java.sql.Date format(mm/dd/yyyy)

Hi,
I am new to this Technology.
in my Project DataBase I have the date field as String in format yyyy-mm-dd. when I am trying to fetch this date through the front-end I need to see the date in dd/mm/yyyy format of type java.sql.Date Variable.
if you know, Pl help me.
Thanks in Advance,
Kamala.

Then use a SimpleDateFormat object to parse it into a Date object, and also to format the Date the way you want to see it, rather than simply relying on the toString() implementation.

Please help me ont this.
Thanks

Hi,
In Prompt:
Try using EVALUATE function.
Eg: Evaluate('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' as character(30),"D5.Times"."Day Date",'DD-MON-YYYY')
Report level:
Try this in the column formula-
Evaluate('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' as character(30),"D5.Times"."Day Date",'MM/DD/YYYY')
(or)
EVALUATE('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' AS CHARACTER ( 30 ), "Dim- Date".Start Date, 'MON-YY')
