you can't in CR...
CR only reads data, it does not act on what it has read to fetch more data. You can accomplish the same thing, if you have an application to call the report by having the application get the data from the correct source and pushing it to the report, or you can have your use alter the DSN to point to the correct datasource, but CR can't do it for you.
