I'm using visual studio 2005 to develop a form with a combobox passing a value into the parameter of an embedded crystal report. I'm trying to figure out why it keeps prompting me for a database login every single time you try to run the report with a different combobox selection.
Here is my code:
private Sub Form1_load...
Dim ConnName As String
Dim ServerName As String
Dim DBName As String
Dim user As String
Dim pass As String
Dim gDBA As ADODB.Connection
Dim records As ADODB.Recordset
Dim datver As ADODB.Recordset
Dim query As String
'---OPEN THE DATABASE CONNECTIONS
gDBA = New ADODB.Connection ': gDBA.CursorLocation = adUseServer
'Added to prevent time out error
gDBA.CommandTimeout = 1000 : gDBA.ConnectionTimeout = 1000
gDBA.ConnectionString = "Server=svr13;Database=subscribers;User ID=KViews;Password=Solution;Trusted_Connection=True;"
gDBA.Open("Data Source=Kaseya;Initial Catalog=subscribers;User Id=KViews;Password=Solution;", "KViews", "Solution")
records = New ADODB.Recordset
query = "select distinct groupname from _v_k order by groupname desc"
'records.ActiveConnection = gDBA.ConnectionString
records.CursorType = CursorTypeEnum.adOpenForwardOnly
records.LockType = LockTypeEnum.adLockReadOnly
records.Open(query, gDBA)
Do While Not records.EOF
ComboBox1.Items.Add(records.Fields("groupname").Value)
records.MoveNext()
Loop
end Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim selected As String
selected = ComboBox1.Text
Dim cryRpt As New ReportDocument
cryRpt.Load("C:\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\WindowsApplication1\WindowsApplication1\CrystalReport1.rpt")
cryRpt.SetDatabaseLogon("KViews", "Solutions", "svr13", "subscribers")
cryRpt.SetParameterValue("companyname", selected)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = cryRpt
CrystalReportViewer1.Refresh()
End Sub
I looked at this previous posting database login prompt with crystal reports
but this wasn't very helpful. I couldn't find where a CMC was to disable the prompt.
Any ideas? thanks in advance
figured it out. the following line was incorrect
it should just be this:
the login prompt doesn't show up anymore.
