Is there a way to repoint a Lawson OLE-DB link in Crystal from one Lawson server to another without have to redo the fields in the report?  We are using Crystal 10.

Yes, it's a two-step process. Use Database|Set Datasource Location to point at the new server, then Database|Database Expert|Edit Command to open the Query Builder and change the (PROD=) product line location in the DME string
Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

When I try to run a DME query in Lawson Query Builder 9, am getting this error message
"An error message was returned from lawson ios data service, the message is invalid date format. use mm/dd/yyyy or yyyymmdd". I am using Crystal enterprise 9 and lsf9. The same query is working in Laswon 8 environment, please help.
