<ODBC entry>	Server application name and IP address (for
	example, CCMS_47.10.25.3_DSN)

Changing a database alias

A database alias is a name that represents a database view in the report definition. If you use an alias rather than a view name, you can easily change the view used by a report.

Procedure steps

Step Action

1From the Crystal Reports window, choose Database, Database Expert.

2In the Selected Tables box, select the database view for which to create an alias name.

3On your keyboard, press F2.

4Enter the new alias.

5Clear the database view to save the new name.

--End--

Example

You can create a user-defined daily report. If you want an interval report with identical fields, you can copy the daily report and change the database alias to point to an interval view.

Click on dAgentPerformanceStat under Selected Tables. In the edit box, enter iAgentPerformanceStat. Clear the database view. The view is now renamed iAgentPerformanceStat.
