Use the Set Location command to change the location of a database that is active in a report. The Set Location command provides a simple way to indicate the new name or location of database files. This is especially useful if someone sends you a report that uses a database that has a different location on your system, or if you have changed the directory or disk location of a database. In addition, the Set Location command automatically converts your database driver to the data source you have chosen. For example, you can automatically convert a direct access data source to an ODBC data source using the Set Location command. The following guidelines apply:
