resets the <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.FlexReport.DataSources.html#C1_Report_FlexReport_DataSources">DataSources</a> collection so it will
contain single <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.FlexReport.DataSource.html#C1_Report_FlexReport_DataSource">DataSource</a> object with name &quot;Main&quot;.
