Crystal Report 11 connect to MS Access MDB within VB6

[mapperkids]

Hi,

I created a report using the crystal report 11 designer inside the VB6 and the report preview is fine, but after I put a password on the MS Access MDB file, even I pass th password in the database location, I still getting the error saying "Login failed",

does anyone know why? also I would like to create a installer for CR Previewer, so I can distribut the vb8 application. HOw can I found out what file should include in the package, like ocx, dll files?

The vb6 package show me a lot of dll needed for CR, and is almost 20MB? It is huge?


Thanks!

Distributing it is HUGE. The Crystal developer help file shows what is required,1 but Crystal has a lot of overhead, and 20MB isn't much these days.

As for your password passing, you didn't post the code used, so all I can do is pass along the sample applications:
