Entering database logon information

Some objects use data sources that require logon information. If objects you are adding are of this type, follow these steps.

  1. Double-click the object, or click + to the left of the object to expose the database.

  2. Select the database and change the logon information in the appropriate fields.

    If the database does not require a user name or password, leave the fields blank.

    Note:    Enter user name and password information carefully. If it is entered incorrectly, the object cannot retrieve data from the database.

  3. Select the Apply this information to all reports check box if you have a number of objects requiring logon to the same database.
  4. Once you have completed the logon information for each object using a different database, click Next.

    The Set Report Parameters dialog box appears if it is needed.
