Most data sources can be chosen through the Database Expert
dialog box. The Database Expert appears when you create a
report from scratch using Blank Report, or when you choose
Database Expert from the Database menu.

Note: You also select a data source in the Report
Creation Wizards. The Data screen in all of the Report
Creation Wizards, except the OLAP Report Creation Wizard, is
much like the Database Expert dialog box.

To select a data source
Choose Database Expert from the Database menu.
The Database Expert dialog box appears.

Use the tree view in the Available Data Sources list of the
Data screen to select your data source:
Current Connections
Favorites
History
Create New Connection
Repository

Some popular choices in the Create New Connection folder are
described here:

Access/Excel (DAO),Database Files,ODBC (RDO),OLAP
OLE DB (ADO)

Note: The data source options available in the Create New
Connections folder depend on the data access components
selected during installation.

One more interview question If I have the data where some columns have multiple values in a given row of data returned from the database. The stored procedure returns data as it is that is blanks values and non blank values. However, I need to suppress the blank values not by showing 0 values but by shifting the cells up. Is there a way using a formula to shift the blank cell one row up based on a selection critieria? In the example below, I want to get rid of the blank values under Exposure column without replacing with 0. example: Company Margin Exposure AB 500 3 10 7 8 ABC 200 4 2 5 10 Thanks Anita
