change Datasource at runtime

Hi

Is it possible to change the datasource dynamically in reporting services.

For example if I have a dataset named DataSet1 whose datasource1 connects to server1, how can I change the same DataSet1 to use datasource2 to points to a different server. I would like to know if this datasource change is possible out side the dataset (dynamically).
Thanks

Hi pzmrcd
I've had the same problem. I found that it was not possible without re-rendering the SRS code(XML). It is not possible in SRS since you can't use an expression to change the dataset. Also the field names of datasets may differ.
