Report Mining Using RAS

Question

Hi,
We're trying to put together a report mining application to help us analyse the hundreds of reports in our Crystal Reports Server 2008, so when we make a change to a database table or field we can easily check to see which reports are affected and may need updating.
So far the application logs in to CRS and cycles through all the reports.
What's the best way to get a list of all the database fields that are actually used by the report whether they're in the details section / group formulae / cross tab objects etc?
The documentation doesn't seem to make it clear whether checking through the Fields object from
reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getResultFields();
for kind FieldKind._DBField will achieve this effect or whether it just contains fields immediately visible directly on the report?
We can easily check the tables involved by getting a DatabaseController, using this to get hold of the Database object and then in turn the Tables object.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Darran Smith

Anyone?
In summary, does
reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getResultFields();
return all database fields being used by the report? The documentation does not seem to make this clear.
I assume it is possible to get a list of all DB fields because the report designer ticks all fields being used in the field explorer.
