I have a process that plucks out various reports from other databases and outputs them in pdf format.

However, for some reason, when I import the report object, it tells me the recordsource doesn't exist (since it exists in the other db)

How do I correctly import/copy the report into my db?
 
If you import the report from a different database, wouldn't you have to import any and all dependent objects as well? If the report's record source is a table or query, then import it/them also, if you plan on running the report from your database.

If you import a Form from a database and intend to use it, you need the underlying table or query, or you build a new one in order to use the Form.
 
Is there an easy way to do this? Can't I just change the imported report's recordsource to instead point to the remote db?
