Crystal Reports v.9
Goldmine/HEAT

After installing Crystal v.9 I've noticed that each time I access various reports w/in one Crystal session I'm prompted to input the login credentials to the db. Is it possible to set this once from w/in Crystal so that it doesn't prompt me each time I access a different report?

Thanks.
 
If you're opening another report and you've not closed Crystal, it should keep the connection alive. Once you close Crystal, it closes the connection.

Crystal does not save connectivity within a report as that would be a security violation.

Right. I understand that. What I'm saying is that w/in the same Crystal session it prompts me each time to enter the db/server password. Any idea how to ensure it doesn't prompt from report to report?
 
It doesn't do so here unless you're using a different form of connectivity.

Check the Database->Set Datasouce Location to make sure that they are all the same.
