Crystal 10 RDC SetLocation Method with Pervasive.SQL

Question

I'm trying to change the Datasource locations in Crystal 10 RDC by using the SetLocation Method. If I look at the values for Location and ConnectBufferString after loading the report I see Location = datafile.dat and the ConnectBufferString = 'Data File=X:\Directory\file.ddf;;Data File Search Path=X:\Directory\. I need to change the ConnectBufferString but it is a read only object. If I use the SetLocation Method that has Location, Sublocation and ConnectBufferString as parameters, I can change the Location and Sublocation but it never changes the ConnectBufferString. Anyone know how I can change the table locations? Since Pervasive has DDF paths I can't just set the Location=X:\Directory\datafile.dat. I need a way to modify the ConnectBufferString. Any help would be appreciated.

All I can find is C++ but it should look like this:
     // beginning of Pervasive set location
     bstrt ConnectionString(m_ConnectionString.AllocSysString());
     AfxMessageBox (theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1)->Name);
     AfxMessageBox (theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1)->ConnectBufferString);
     bstrt ConnectionString = "Data File=D:
clients
PVSW81
demodata
file.ddf;;Data File Search Path=D:
clients
PVSW81
don
     theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1)->ConnectBufferString = ConnectionString;
     // Set the logon info
     bstrt Server(m_Server.AllocSysString());
     bstrt Database(m_Database.AllocSysString());
     bstrt User(m_UserName.AllocSysString());
     bstrt Password(m_Password.AllocSysString());
     // use this code to change database location
     theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(2)->Location = "D:
clients
PVSW81
demodata
course.mkd";
     theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1)->Location = "D:
clients
PVSW81
don
class.mkd";
//     AfxMessageBox (theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1)->ConnectBufferString);
     theApp.m_Report->Database->Tables->DBTable.ConnectionProperties
     theApp.m_Report->Database->Verify();
     // End of Pervasive set location
Thank you
