The specific Toolbox Reports affected:

  • Toolbox > Report Manager > Profile > PVI_Station
  • Toolbox > Report Manager > Profile > Incremental Stationing Report

This is an important trick worth noting. We might face similar issues with other Civil 3D features aside from Profiles.
We simply turn something linked to external file data into the dynamic design data behind that the Report engine recognizes by Copy.
