Crystal 8.5 "Server not yet opened" error
Hey everyone, I have a very interesting problem that I cannot seem to
nail down. I have a whole bunch of reports that run fine when
executed in the Crystal IDE when I use any of the 3 username/pwd that
I know for the database. However, when I try to run it from within VB,
I get the "Server not yet opened" error on all but one of the logins.
From what I can tell, it is acting this problem in the Crystal
Knowledge base:
http://www.*-*-*.com/
but that was for 8.0 and a fix was implemented. I am running 8.5 so I
would assume the fix would in place for me. Also, can someone explain
to me the difference between "pdsodbc.dll" and "p2sodbc.dll"? I am
taking someone elses code over, an they use pdsodbc.dll in
logonServerEx, but that does not exist on my machine. p2sodbc.dll
does though. It makes no difference if I change that value when
calling logonServerEx. Anyway, I am at a complete loss here to
explain why only one login will work, so any suggestion, small as it
may be, would be helpful. I don't know a whole lot about Crystal
reports, so I could be missing something obvious. thanks
