login error using BDE comp

[rizunb]

Hello people
ok, I am using BDE components

I have 3 TQuery and 1 stored procedure components.
every time i run the app, it is asking for the password for the database. For this reason, I used the TDatabase component and set the loginprompt property to false, set the alais name to the BDE alais for that database.
Now when I try to run the program, the login window doesnt pop up but the login fails and program doesnt run
it seems like it trying to connect with wrong password or may be Blank PASSWORD.

How and where can I fix the password and then keep the loginprompt to false and get the application working
I hope you understand what i mean
thanks

for your database you have an attribute called params (TStrings)
you can make it hold values regarding the username and the password. e.g:

USERNAME=SYSDBA
PASSWORD=passw

You need to set the Params property of your database. I haven't worked in these in a while, but the format is either Param=Value or Param:Value, so it will look something like this:

Password=MyPassword

-Dell

and you're sure you wrote the correct username and password??

try writing username as user name - i can't remember exactly where i ran into this problem... but this little detail solved it

Username sysdba works for interbase, but that was not mentioned. But you are working with stored procedures, so it could be Interbase?
