	OdaDataSetHandle ref for existing .rptdesign template by Tom Corcoran :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Starting with a .rptdesign template I am looking to manipulate this at runtime to run against a number of databases. http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.birt/msg20490.html outlines doing OdaDataSetHandle dsHandle = designFactory.newOdaDataSet( "ds", "org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.jdbc.JdbcSelectDataSet" ); I could then point odaURL to the new database, using: dsHandle.setProperty( "odaURL", "jdbc:classicmodels:sampledb" ); My question is how can I get an instance of OdaDataSetHandle for existing .rptdesign rather than create a new one?
