Hello group, I have searched thru all the old threads for info on
crystal distribution and found them very helpfull. I currently use
crystal 8.5 on vantage 5.0.326 with the merant 3.6 drivers. I down
loaded the compiler from crystal and have created a distribution file
for a report. The file installs fine and when I run the .exe I am
required to enter the database name, the user name and a password.
Is there a way around this? I really do not want to give out the
progress name and password to every one who needs to run the report.
In the archives I see this question has been asked but I have not
seen any responses. If this is required has anyone created a visual
basic app. to start reports using this static logon info, thus
keeping it out of the hands of the end user? Any info would be
GREATLY appreciated.
