I'm trying to setup a ODBC data soure for my computer so I can hook up crystal reports to my SQL server (which I have administrative access to). However I cant connect in data source administrator even after I have verified servername, database name, and login info several times...The error basically tells me that I either typed in the wrong username and password or the server doesnt exist...I am running SQL Server 2005 and am using Managment Studio Express. Someone told me that express may not be able to except the type of connection I am trying to do...If this is the case then how else can I link up to the thing with crystal reports.....The crystal reports people basically tell me its a database problem and the database people tell me it a crystal reports problem so I am at a loss as to what to try next....?
