I program ASP.NET with SQL server 2000 using mixed authentication mode. If I use sa in connection string, there is no problem. If I create another account in SQL server (e.g. ASPNET)and replaced "sa" with "ASPNET", I got a prompt in Crystal report aking to input network login name and password. What is wrong? |

-- U MUST use a different user name - even if u can use sa (sa is the super admin - if some unauthorized person knowing that would be disastrous)-- U should not try to (U cannot) replace sa User Name, Instead create a different user name as ASPNET-- In crystal Report, the DB connection may have made with sa / pswd, u may need to change itSrinika |

You should stay away from using SA in your connection strings or your day to day activities.Rather create a user with all the sysadmin rights for your day to day stuff.RegardsNThe revolution won't be televised! |

If you want to avoid the login stuff consider using a Windows (Trusted) Login, instead of a SQL Server oneKristen |
