invalid login

[staann56]

I have Business Objects (BO) v5.1.8 running on a W2K server. My reports are ran via VB Scripts, which pass the username and password to the BO application. This works great most of the time. However, periodically the username field get cleared out on the BO login (user authentication) window. You should be able to see the last person that logged into BO, however the username is cleared out. Even though my VB Script passes the un & pw to the BO application, they're not recognized and I must manually login (with the same un & pw) and then exit BO. Then my VB Script will work. Anybody have this problem and have a clue as to the cause and what to do to prevent this from happening?

Thanks,
HW
