I need to upgrade our custom reports for out ERP software.  Is there any way of tracking the last time a report was used?  Many times our users do not save reports after they run them so I cannot tell by the date the last time the report was actually used.

I want to determine which reports are obsolete and which ones need to be upgraded.


Oh yea - the reports are currently being used on Crystal 8 - but the updated versions will be running on Crystal 11.5

if you use stored procs to generate your report, you could have them add an entry to a table, but if you are joining straight from the report to the tables in the database, I don't know of a way.
