Database Acces with VB 6.0 and CR 10.0

[bidra]

Hi,

I am using a VB application calling CR reports . I want to use the OLE DB(ADO) database connection but don't know how to pass the logon parameters. How do I have to pass the logon parameters.
------------------------------
With ODBC it was
Report.Database.Tables.Item(1).SetLogOnInfo
"DSN-servername", "databasename", "userid", "password"
-------------------------------

How do I have to pdo with OLE DB(ADO)?

Thanx for any Answer

SetLogOnInfo is 'deprecated', but it still works (you won't see in using Intellisense, but it's still there, and still works).

The 'new' method of setting the properties for logging in is the ConnectionProperties property bag. Here's a whitepaper that demonstrates how to use it for different connectivity:
