Reconnecting OLE DB to UDL when closing Crystal

I am using Crystal 10, and have been asked to pull data from our company SharePoint site. This is completely new to me, so please bear with me: I linked a Crystal report to a UDL file (holds the path to the Sharepoint page) by creating a new OLE DB Provider in Crystal, where I used the "Microsoft Data Link File" option to navigate to the UDL file. The report works initially, but I lose the connection when Crystal is closed. When I reopen Crystal, and then the report, it brings up the OLE DB Provider screen. I have to click 'Back' and then 'Finish' to restablish the connection. (Just clicking 'Finish' brings up the following error: "ADO Error Code: 0x80004005"... Could not find installable ISAM"). Does anyone know how to keep the connection from being lost when exiting Crystal?
