GOAL:

Report Builder Override database connection info

FIX:

When running the Report Engine V8 table interface prore.exe, the syntax to override the database connection information saved in the report definition
is as follows:

The RB-DB-CONNECTION parameter should contain,

<logicalname> = <connection string>


for example,
1 - save in report definition (.prl)
physical: oldsport.db
logical : sports

2 - RB-DB-CONNECTION parameter
sports = -db newsport.db -1

(connect to newsport database in single user mode)

The <logicalname> that is used on the left side of the string must exactly match the logical name that is saved in the report definition. If no logical name was specified it will default to the physical name.

Report Builder will throw away all saved connection info for that database and replace it with the new connection string specified.
