I recently set up SQL Server express on an XP machine. I am not able to connect Crystal reports to the database. Below is the message that I receive when I try to connect. I am sure that the connection between the machines is good and that the request reaches the database OK. I think it is in permissions, etc on the database.

Thank you

Failed to open the connection.
Details:ADO Error Code 0x
Source:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Description:[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
