hi,
im using VB.net to create an invoice application and im using crystal report viewer to view the preview of the reports being printed.
im using this program on one computer and i don't want the user to open the database. but it will allow them to add in datas via the program.
the database im using is Microsoft Access 2003 and e file's extension is .mdb
i have problem with the security.
1) if i secure the database by using SET DATABASE password,
how do i insert that password into the VB.net 2005 coding when opening the crystal report viewer? i tried using. crystaldecisions.crystalreports.tablelogoninfo.connectioninfo.password = "password"
it doesn't work.
it will keep asking me to insert the password all over again and the report wun be loaded.
2) if supposingly i use the workgroup to secure the database,
how do i attach the .mdw file in the crystal report viewer codings?
3) if there's a better way to lock the database from being opened but allowing it to be manipulated (add/edit) via the program i created using VB.net 2005. how?
btw. i can consider myself a beginner in vb.net
please dun hesitate to guide me through. thanks and sorry.
thanks for the help in advance.
