Crystal Reports - Database Login dialog when using datasets - .NET VB:

Re: Crystal Reports - Database Login dialog when using datasets
I found out something... You need to check the properties in the 'Datasource Location' screen on your form/report (in the designer). In more detail... right click on 'Database Fields' and choose 'Set Datasource Location'... then verify or 'Replace' the datatable (or dataset) you have with the new one.

This is a HUGE ISSUE if you were using a custom namespace and, from the previous post/replys had to remove the namespace... it DOES NOT get removed from the datasource. Now, using this 'Set Datasource Location' helps with not having to redesign or drop the fields (or new fields) back on the form... it simply updates it for you.

This got rid of the 'Database Login Dialog' from popping up!

i hope this helps someone
