    Crystal Reports an VB6

    I use a DAO/Access97 database under VB6 and then print my reports with Crystal Reports 8. I want to password protect my database but when calling the report from the VB6 app the app crash. How can I open the table in Crystal Reports from within the app with a password?

    have you set up user groups within access?
    If so I presume you have altered the commection properties in the data environment(Under the connection name)

    Re: Crystal Reports an VB6

    I'm a beginner with VB/DAO/Access. Migrated from Clipper. I don't know if there is such a thing (user groups) setup. I haven't done something like that.

    The application is a standalone app that uses the DAO database for its data.

    I want to password protect the database so that users can't scratch in there with Access.

    When i do that however the program crashes the moment Crystal Reports try to open the password protected database to print the requested reports.
