I am trying to access the Report dataset via "About this report"-Feature in 2013 and 2013 R2. But it is not working. I always get the same message. I know that I have to start the Feature twice, but still, it is not working. Any ideas?

    Try to run the report from the RTC instead from Object Designer, is it working then?

    Hi clausl,

    you are right, if the reported is started from the Client, I can Access the dataset. But why is this not working, if you start the Report from the object designer. Does anyone know if it isnt supporte anymore?

    It is a bug in RollUp 3, 4 and 5. Solved in RollUp6 if you install the whole DVD which is now shipped with the RollUps.

    The issue is explained here:

    Hi Claus!

    Nice conincidence that I will be starting our upgrade rollout with the Danish subsidiary :) I will download the installer from dynamicsuser.net. Does that always have the latest rollouts or should I always look in CustomerSource? I don't use a partner at the moment to save costs (I will later when it comes to data migration - I think the Migration Toolkit is not in the Application Designer licence range...)
