SSAS Tabular How to Change the connection of a table

I created a Tabular model using VS 2013 (because later versions don't support BIDS helper (which we use for creating a folder structure organizing all measures and dimensions within the model)). After working on it for a while I noticed that I was missing a table, so I went back to go get it. The only mistake which I made was that I ended up creating a new data connection in the process. Short of dropping those tables and recreating them, is there a simple way for me to change the data source of that new table so that I can delete the redundant connection to my database?
A colleague shared the following link: http://jakubka.blogspot.com/2013/11/how-to-change-connection-string-for.html.
While changing the code in this way most certainly comes across as being hacky and is probably not the highly recommended way to do things; it worked! Took me less than 5 minutes to fix and it was as simple as described in the link...
Jakub K (author of the article), thanks, man!
I encountered this issue today. I have VS 2017 and co-worker showed me how to do this.
Create New Data source in the Model(.bim file)
Save and close .bim file
Right click the .bim file and view code . This gives you an editable view.
Edit the connection on all the tables you want changed, not the original connection.
Save and exist .bim file
Open .bim file and confirm change.
In this case I use Tabular Editor.

How to use Email attribute attachmentcount ?

I was thrilled when I saw the attribute attachmentcount on Email entity in MS Dynamics CRM 2015(I believe it's the same with MS Dynamics CRM 2013), but I can't seem to use it... not in the form and not as a column in a view.
Why can't I use this attribute??
Best Regards
Knut "Frustrated" Myre :-)
I'm going to guess its because its a special system field. Some system fields have particular behaviours and apparently this one means it cant be used on forms or views.
You could perhaps look into copying the value into another field using a workflow or plugin.

Update Access Tabels using Excel tabels

I got the following problem:
I imported Excel Files into my Access DB using the normal
"functions", but those now don't allow me to update the now created
Access tables.
I can only add new Datasets using this way and not update the existing
ones.
After some research it seems like this is only possible via VBA or SQL.
But how would it work? Is there a script i can use do make such an update via a button or such?
Thanks for the help.
Matthias
you can set up a linked spread sheet to your access table that will allow you to edit the data in both places iirc

Export odi/odsi to text files for source control

ODI is mandatory at work but any changes made to SQL
are stored internally
I wish to programmatically pull out all SQL from
ODI store it in source control and then I can diff
and at least use half decent code reviews (worrying about who changed what
is far less of a problem than wondering if people are remembering
all their changes
So - how can I programmatically pull out Sql from ODI

Puttting together binding navigators in a project

I am working on a group project in vb.net, in which all my team members are working on individual tables of a database. All of us are using binding navigator,where the GUI is created by drag and drop from the table.
Is it possible to attach all these pieces together with imports or references?
Will the changes made to the database while working on the program like table adapter can create problem? Do I need to make all those changes in database before importing ?
Can you please give suggestions to put the project together.
By binding the particular combo box to the original table the data need not be re-entered in that particular combo box.It appears at run time. I think my question was not clear that is why I did not get any answer
