I am using an ODBC connection to a SQL Server 2000 database to retrieve
information for a Crystal Report. When I am logged onto the network as
domain admin and create an ODBC DSN using SQL Server authentication and my
database admin logon everything works fine. If I use another SQL Server
logon (like the username of the supervisor who needs to view the report) to
create the DSN I get an ODBC (RDO) Login prompt for userid and password. No
matter what database userid and password I use I get an error message that
the password is invalid. I know the database userid and passwords I'm using
are valid because they are used daily by users who login through business
applications that use this database. The database is on a Windows Server
2000 computer. The domain controller is an NT4 SP6 machine. The
workstations are Windows XP Pro. Can anyone offer suggestions on
troubleshooting this problem?
