Topic: Active Directory Posted: 25 Nov 2008 at 11:57am
Hi all. from this post http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=774 I can see that linking to Active Directory is possible, but I haven't been able to figure it out. My issue is in making the connection. Here's what I do:
In the Database Expert in Crystal, and under Create New Connection, select OLE DB (ADO) Datasource = LDAP://us.com/ OU=GenericUsers DC=us,DC=com' WHERE objectClass='user' UserID = domain/mylogin password = mypassword
then click finish.
The results I expect to see would have "ADD COMMAND" or somewhere I could write a sql-like query. What I get is a connection called "Active Directory Service Interfaces" with no items found beneath it.
Do I have bad syntax, no rights, or a missing plugin that allows this? I'm working with CR9.2 Developer.
Or. . .am I not supposed to see "add command"? All web references I see show the LDAP command and then SQL with no actual reference to where you are supposed to be plugging these things in.
