color=#800080>I have an Access database (XP) from which I created <BR>several
Crystal Reports (8.5) because Access would not <BR>handle all the fields
required for the reports. I may have <BR>gone about this backwards because now
that I have started <BR>investigating how to be able to view the reports in
Access <BR>I find that one actually must create the reports through <BR>Access
when using the Wizard. If so then hopefully this <BR>will be a simple copy/paste
procedure once I get into it.<BR><BR>The problem is that once I started up the
Crystal Report <BR>Wizard and chose the query from which I wanted to create
<BR>the first report, I was asked to enter a database <BR>password. My database
does not have a password. I have <BR>searched for a means to handle this but to
no avail. Has <BR>anyone experienced this problem before? <BR><BR>Or better yet,
what I really need to do is view the <BR>reports from within Access using the
Crystal Active-X. <BR>I've been over the Accocx97.mdb example on how to set up a
<BR>CR in Access, however in XP I don't see a place to put the <BR>file name of
the report.<BR><BR>I'm hoping someone can help me real quick as I've already
<BR>wasted too much time re-doing these reports in Crystal <BR>after having
found out that Access won't handle them.<BR><BR><BR>THANK
YOU<BR></FONT></SPAN></DIV></STRONG></DIV>
