Adding username and password to a report?

[ziggs]

I have distributed several reports to employee computers. I do not want to give them the username and password to the oracle database that the report links to. Is there any way to add the password without having them enter it in when they open the report? Also, I have some reports pointing to MS SQL Server Databases.

P.S. They're using Seagate Analysis to view the reports and the actual reports are on their harddrives.

Thanks [sig][/sig]

I am not sure if storing them on their hard drive involves going through the desktop. In v7, on the desktop, you can store in p/w in report object by going into properties | servers tab | double click on the database logon row and you should be able to store both. [sig][/sig]

Ina,

When you say desktop, are you talking about Seagate Info 7 Desktop or Seagate Crsytal Reports 7? Most of the users here aren't using Info. [sig]<p>Ken Hamady-

Sorry, I am talking about Seagate Info 7 Desktop, not Seagate Crsytal Reports 7. I didn't know Crsytal Reports product was referred to as desktop. [sig][/sig]
