1184035 - RDC Location property does not return the full path to a PC database using a native driver in Crystal Reports 10 and XI.

Report Designer Component (RDC) .Location property does not return the full path to a PC database using a native driver in Crystal Reports 10 and XI.

There is a difference in code between RDC version 9.0 and versions 10 and XI.

RDC version 9.0 uses the following code to change Location in an Access Native report:

Report.Database.Tables(1).SetTableLocation "c\test\new.mdb", "New Table Name", ""  Report.Database.Tables(1).Location returns the full path to the .mdb i.e. "C:\Temp\Xtreme.mdb"

RDC versions 10 and XI use the following code to change the tablename:

Report.Database.Tables(1).Location "New Table Name" Report.Database.Tables(1).Location returns the table name. Report.Database.Tables(1).SetTableLocation "c\test\new.mdb", "New Table Name", "" will also change the table name.

The change in the return value of Report.Database.Tables(1).Location may cause a problem upgrading a version 9.0 or earlier Project.
