[AccessD] Crystal Reports - 2

Please forgive me if you're seeing this more than once, but the post that I
saw was blank.  I have changed my settings to be sure that I get a copy of
this.  
 
I have an Access database (XP) from which I created 
several Crystal Reports (8.5) because Access would not 
handle all the fields required for the reports. I may have 
gone about this backwards because now that I have started 
investigating how to be able to view the reports in Access 
I find that one actually must create the reports through 
Access when using the Wizard. If so then hopefully this 
will be a simple copy/paste procedure once I get into it.

The problem is that once I started up the Crystal Report 
Wizard and chose the query from which I wanted to create 
the first report, I was asked to enter a database 
password. My database does not have a password. I have 
searched for a means to handle this but to no avail. Has 
anyone experienced this problem before? 

Or better yet, what I really need to do is view the 
reports from within Access using the Crystal Active-X. 
I've been over the Accocx97.mdb example on how to set up a 
CR in Access, however in XP I don't see a place to put the 
file name of the report.

I'm hoping someone can help me real quick as I've already 
wasted too much time re-doing these reports in Crystal 
after having found out that Access won't handle them.


THANK YOU
