Hello,

I have a crystal report that requires logging on to the sql server. I figured out how to set up my ado connection and the crystal viewer pops up, however I get an error that states that there is a problem with my data source. Do you know the code to pass the user name and password to the report?

Please help!

Thank you in advance,
C
 
you should have this in your code:

Set session("oRpt") = session("oApp").OpenReport(path & reportname, 1)

Set mainReportTableCollection = Session("oRpt").Database.Tables

For Each mnTable in mainReportTableCollection
With mnTable.ConnectionProperties
.Item("user ID") = "youruserID"
.Item("Password") = "yourpassword"
.Item("DSN") = "yourDSN"
.Item("Database") ="yourDatabase"
End With
Next
 
Thanks for the reply. However the code fails on this line:
With mnTable.ConnectionProperties

Says property not allowed.

Also, should this code go before I open the database connection or after?

Thanks again!
