        Sorry for the late response I have been OOO.  Ok so today I removed all the copied reports and started back over by haveing the same report in multiple workspaces... nothing is linked anymore.  What is the proper and best way to share the dataset, but also be able to have any visual changes updated as well acroos these reports?
