Hi, I'm using
VB .NET (Visual Studio 2002
Crystal Reports 9 (soon to upgrade to 10, just want 9 to work first
Win 200
When I run the crystal report independently, I can access the Oracle 7.3.4 database, no problem. db name PDTT, uid and pwd
But, when I run it via the vb .net app, it is only reading the memory of the data in the report, and therefore when I try to run a parameter, it fails. It calls me to insert server name, it defaults to the db name and uid and calls for a pwd. Why is this happening? What am I doing wrong
I call the report from form1 which initializes the RD component , and the CR Viewer on form2 calls the PDTTtest.rpt
When I click refresh in debug mode, I'm asked for the server name, etc
I can visually see the db tables listed in VStudio .net. Is this a networking issue? The server resides elsewhere, maybe a domain/router/security prob? Yet, if so, why can I connect using the report alone
I'd really appreciate your help. I've put this request out in a few places, am not getting feedback, need to move forward asap!!
(a) I need to be able to run the report in the app, and
(b) I want to set it up so the user isn't prompted to log in each time.
