My user is setup in SQL as a NT authenticated user. Whenever I try to use this login in Crystal 9, with trusted connection, the only things I see are dbo stored procedures. I don't see any tables or views, even though I can query them in sql. Why is it not listing them? This has been a problem all along and have not figured out how to fix this.
 
Check the File-?Options->Database->Data Explorer to make sure that Tables and Views are selected.

Yes they are selected. I don't have the issue if a use a sql login ID and password ie non-trusted.
 
Are you using the SAME SQL loginID and password when you try to connect with (and without) the trusted-connection...?
 
No. I have the issue with a Windows NT authenticated user (my own) and use a different sql login ID and password (non-NT) and it works.
 
Do both logins (NT and non-NT)have the same rights on the SQL database..?

Sounds like one of the logins has much more limited rights on the SQL side.
 
Yes both the NT user and the non-NT user have select on the one view I am using.

It's not a permission issue. My NT user is an administrator on our domain,so SQL server automatically gives me dbo permissions. My issue is when I use this loging with CR 9 and I connect to a database via ODBC using a trusted connection, it ONLY lists some dbo owned stored procedures and NONE of the tables/views that that user has been assigned select permissions on.
