Initialize Session component

edited June 2006 in DADE
Hello,

I'm using Report Builder Entreprise version 10.3 with Explorer
component for accessing BDE table. Where and how have I to
initialize the Session component for access my data?
I don't want to use Alias. I want to be able to decide on the
place of the directory "NetFileDir".

Thanks for your help.

    - for examples of using the report explorer with various database engines
    and data access component sets see RBuilder\Demos\EndUser Databases. The
    examples include SQL scripts for creating the supporting tables and a
    ReadMe.doc.
    - as shown in the demos above, you should use a Database connection
    component that resides on the form/datamodule that contains the
    ReportExplorer and Designer component. The Database connection component
    should contain the connection parameters. The
    Designer.DataSettings.DatabaseName should reference the database connection
    component. That way you can change the connection parameters without
    breaking the reports.

    - when you create a report, the Designer.DataSettings are used to create the
    query dataview(s) and these settings are saved as part of the report
    definition.
