    Posted: 06 Aug 2008 at 3:28pm
I've been deploying Crystal Reports with .NET web applications for over five years now, and this is the first time that I have a group of reports pulling from multiple data sources.  The reports are built and run just fine, but when I attempt to deploy them through the applications, I can't get the logon information passed to the individual tables of the different sources.  I end up passing all of the logon information to the last datasource that is processed.
 
Can anyone pass along a sample of code where more than one datasource is used for a non-embedded report?
 
Thanks!

I don't know what code you are using to set the login info, but you can loop through the table collection and assign different login credentials to each table. Of course, you would need an If-Then logic to determine which table is currently being evaluated and set the approprieat login credentials based on that.

Hi Brian-
 
That is essentially what I'm trying to do, but the problem is that I can't figure out a way to indicate which tables are in which database.  What happens is that whatever the last item is that loops through, those credentials are applied to the table, even if it is for the wrong database.
 
Make sense?
 
Thanks!
