 Crystal Reports Distribution Reports Expert

Have SQL2000 running on Win2K machine.  Have Crystal Reports 8.5 on
some desktops but do not want to give the end users all of the
features enabled in reports.

When trying to use the Distribution Reports Expert, the report
installs fine on the workstation, but after selecting the report, it
prompts for the SQL information (server, database, user, password).
After completing this it does nothing.  I would prefer to compile
these with all of that information in and, of course, get the report
to work.

Any thoughts?

Do the users have the needed permissions to the object in SQL that the
report is accessing? It also could be that there is a problem with the SQL
driver on the machine or the report is calling for a different version of
the SQL driver than what is on the box. Is the server a Cluster SQL Server.
We havefound that MDAC 2.6 fixes that problem.
