Is there a way to make the connection string used to connect to a database a variable. For both the path to the database and also the name. I have the situation where the database will be the exact same format but it's location and name will change.

Hello,

Specifying a connection string via the variable is not possible. As a way, you can change the connection string from the code of your application:

Code: Select all

((StiSqlDatabase)report.Dictionary.Databases["Connection"]).ConnectionString = newConnectionString;
Thank you.
