Deleting a Corrupt Data Provider

I have a report that contains over 25 data providers - There is one data provider that is corrupted & causing problems with the report - but it refuses to be deleted. It bombs each time I either refresh it or try to delete. I have tried purging ALL the data providers & removing ALL the links, etc, etc… to no avail.
This report is the report from hell :reallymad: not an easy task to re-create it. Is there ANY other way that I can delete this dp from behind the scenes or is there a utility that can do this?

You’ve already posted this question as a follow-up to an existing topic here.

Please do not post a question more than once – we call that cross-posting, and it’s against our rules.

If you’ve waited a few days and no one has answered, you can post a reply to bump the topic up. But it’s always just possible that no one knows a solution to suggest. I’m really sorry, but most of us have been there. :cry:

Hence, locking this topic. Please post any replies to your other post.
