Need automatic login for subreport with HTML viewer

A CR8 report has a main report and a subreport. Each gets data from a different table in a database. When this report is displayed in a browser using the HTML viewer, the user is prompted for the login and password so the subreport gets data. How can this be done automatically from the main report?

When the user gives a login and password, there is still no data displayed, just an empty tabbed dialog called preview. There is no sign of the main report either. What does this mean?

Previously, the main report had hardcoded data(labels) and the data currently in the subreport appeared in a section of the main report and everything was fine. The data was pushed off into a subreport to allow the labels on the main report to be retrieved from another table in the database so they can be in any language. Given the problems above, is there another approach which does not require large changes to the architecture?
