hi
i have developed crystal reports (vb.NET 2003 version)
it asks for Login and server name etc.
i mena in report viewer login window comes .. this happens when the server is changed
for example client side or installatin site..

but in my code i am also allocating login info and stuff run time.

belolw is the code that does that

-----------------------------------------------------------
rep.Load(Application.StartupPath & "\report\" & rptFileName)
' loading rpt file


'-- below constr is the connection string info for SQL server
'-- i am splitting information to get server name and pwd and uid stuff from app.config file ia

have made
'
   Private Sub InitializeReport()
        rep.Load(Application.StartupPath & "\report\" & rptFileName)

        Dim tempservinfo() As String = Split(strConnect, ";")
        Dim server, database, uname, pword
        server = Split(tempservinfo(0), "=")
        database = Split(tempservinfo(1), "=")
        If tempservinfo.Length > 3 Then
            uname = Split(tempservinfo(2), "=")
            pword = Split(tempservinfo(3), "=")
        Else
            uname = ""
            pword = ""
        End If
        rep.SetDatabaseLogon(uname(1), pword(1), server(1), database(1))
        Dim MyLogonInfo As CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo
        Dim MyTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table
        For Each MyTable In rep.Database.Tables


            MyLogonInfo = MyTable.LogOnInfo
            If (MyTable.Name = "") Then
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = uname(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = pword(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = server(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = database(1)
            Else
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = uname(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = pword(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = server(1)
                MyLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = database(1)
                MyTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(MyLogonInfo)
            End If



        Next
        CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rep

' rep variable is report document

        CrystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo(0).ConnectionInfo.S erverName = server(1)
        CrystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo(0).ConnectionInfo.D atabaseName = database(1)
        CrystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo(0).ConnectionInfo.U serID = uname(1)
        CrystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo(0).ConnectionInfo.P assword = pword(1)

        CrystalReportViewer1.SelectionFormula = rptSelectFormula
    End Sub
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

in above code everything works fine i have checked while doing debugging and all information

goes properly but then also that login window comes

also the thing is i am not using tables straight away in reports for data
i am using view and qeries i have built in databse.

any help would be helpfull ASAP plz
thanx in advance
