Data source in Jasper reports - jasper-reports

I am using Jasper Reports Server opensource 4.5 version.
While uploading a report, everytime, I have to link the new report to a data source.
I have created a data source and my all reports run on same data source.
Is there any way to set the data source as default so that all the new reports automatically links to the data source?

How do you upload your reports to jasperserver? If you use the plugin in iReport, it's very simple to link the datasource because you can just choose the datasource from the repository.

Crystal Reports Loading Database info

I have SAP Crystal Reports 2011 and use it to edit reports we use with JobBOSS ERP system. These reports were all put in place before I started here and am just now learning Crystal Reports. I am trying to edit the reports but am having issues.
So when I open the report in Crystal Reports the Field Explorer is showing that the file being used to pull fields into the reports is a TTX file. I know nothing about TTX files and assumed I could just find the data in my tables and import it in but apparently that wont mix well from what I am understanding. I have no clue what to do with the TTX and being able to populate the fields on the page with data from another table.
Where do I start with this? All of my forms use the TTX to pull data. Does anyone have any resources that can help me with this?
To change this report, you must use the report version in the JobBoss production report folder (.rpt). Save the .rpt to a work area. Make changes and then place back in the folder retrieved from. You can add tables to this kind of report but cannot change the .ttx table. The report must be run from within Jobboss. Save the original .rpt to a save folder first. Call with questions.

what are different preview report using excel preview and excel preview(using J ExcelApi) in iReports 2.0.2?

i'm still new in Jasper reports.i still confuse what the different preview report using excel preview and excel preview(using J ExcelApi) in iReports 2.0.2.Which is more common that people use?. is there any effect when we generate the report?. Can anybody tell me?
Jasperreports supports multiple export formats (xls, pdf, csv, etc...). After developing a report using iReport, you can generate a report in any of those export formats. The best way to view those reports is using an external appliction that you can map. For example, xls report is tied with Excel and pdf reports are tied with Adobe Reader. The new version of iReport supports generation of these reports using the application itself (preview). However, what happens in the background is the same whether you view it with external viewer or internaly using iReport "preview". Personaly, I prefer to use external viewer. The exported reports are cached in the compilation directory.

How to convert SSRS 2008 Server reports to SSRS 2008 Client Reports

I have a large SSRS 2008 Server Report Project (more than 200 reports). Currently my company strategy has been changed and we want to convert these server reports to client reports.
All of the Server reports use stored procedures (or in some cases from the SQL functions)
All of them work properly andthere is no problem
Beause of project scale it is not a good idea to create all of server reports in client again.
So I want to check how to convert SSRS 2008 Server reports to SSRS 2008 Client reports (.rdl to .rdlc).
Note : I know that client reports use Dataset and I have to create Dataset. I'm also looking for a way to generate these dataset too. But for now I'm just looking for a way to convert .RDL files to .RDLC files.
If there are any application which can convert RDL XML to RDLC XML let me know.
Any help appreciated.
After a while I foud this Converting RDL and RDLC Files helpfull
1- Rename the .rdl file to use the .rdlc file extension.
2- In Visual Studio 2008, open the solution or project that will contain the report.
3- Create or add the dataset that defines the data you want to use to your projector solution. For more information, see Creating Data Sources for a Report.
4- On the Project menu, click Add Existing Item and then select the .rdlc file that you created in the first step.
5- In the project, open the form or Web page that will contain the report.
