I know the Crystal Reports Run Time engine (CRPE32.DLL) has been 'officially' retired. However, does anyone know a way to pass the login credentials from the report to a user function (UFL) called by the report? In particular using a UFL constructed in Visual Basic?
i.e. when the report is run the application would have passed the database login credentials to the report, a UFL called in the report uses ADO to make its own connection to the same database, however I don't want to prompt the user again... rather I'd like the connection info to 'pass through'.
I'm not sure if this is more a VB thing or Crystal Reports Thing.
