Hi Franco,

Uncheck the 'Save Data With Report' and use that report as the template. When automating Crystal Reports, you can export the report to Crystal Reports format including the fresh data.

Walter,

I want to be able to generate this report and then save a copy of it together with the data it contains into a database so that I would be able to reprint it as the need arises. I also want to be able to re-generate new versions of this report and save these as well. So I want to end up with different versions of this report, each with a different data set.
