Hi, in the Jet Reports 2009 Beta-forum you Jet Report guys posted an answer how to administrate the data views in a bigger Jet Reports Installation from a central network-folder.
As the Beta-Forum is not online any more, please could you give me (and all the others) this post as an answer to this post again?
Thanx!

Jet Reports Historic Posts Official comment There is actually already an option in the data source settings to change the data view directory. Since data views are stored by data source, it is kept in Data Sources.xml, not Settings.xml. It has not yet been added to the data source settings user interface, but if you browse to the Data Sources.xml file in the "%AppData%\Jet Reports" directory and open the file in Notepad or wordpad, you can manually change the setting. First find the data source for which you want to change the file (i.e. <dataSource name="MyDataSource" type="Navision">…). Then find the setting named DataViewDirectory (i.e. <setting name="DataViewDirectory" type="String" encrypted="false">…). The value of that setting should be empty (i.e. <value />). Change the value to the desired folder (i.e. <value>P:\JetReports\DataViews</value>). We will look into adding these settings to the Data Source Settings user interface in the future.
