Avoiding to present the login prompt at report opening 1

[taharna]

Hi, I have some problems with a series of Seagate Crystal 8.0 Reports. They are accessible from an Intranet to 300 final users. I created a virtual directory that contains all my reports, selecting option "save data with report" to get a fast access to Reports results. These reports have old data inside and if I try to refresh the database login prompt appears. I don't want users to face with this prompt window, but I couldn't find anything to avoid it.

Even calling the report with

http://localhost/mydir/report.rpt?i...OnRefresh=0&user0=myuser&password0=mypassword

the damned window keep on opening. I'm worring about the possibility to eliminate the prompt.

Please, if anyone can, give me help.

Thank you

Bettina

Try "init=actx:connect" in the url

init=actx:connect is not correctly interpreted by the Page Server. The error returned is like "this isn't a defined viewer". But connect is a command and so i tried to make an url like that:

...init=actx&cmd=connect&user=myuser&password=mypassword&server=mydbserver

and it seems to work!!!!

************thank you very much to ssudha****************

where can I find document upon Crystal Report for further information? Can you advise me for some manuals?

1.Look for the file scr8_urlcmds.pdf at

http://support.crystaldecisions.com/docs

if you are using 8.0 professional version.
2.Look for the file ce8_urlcmds.pdf at the same location if you are using Crystal Enterprise 8.0 Standard version

Have a nice day !
