Hello all,

I have an ASP.Net app using C# running on a web server. In this app I
attempt to access a Crystal Report on another server. If I set the
ReportSource through the DataBindings property in the designer, it
works perfectly in design mode. However, when I run the app, it can't
access the report. I even explicity set the ReportSource again in the
Page_Load and it doesn't work. The path that I'm using has the
following form: "\\someserver\\someshare$\\somefolder\\MyReport.rp t"
(I've also tried it with "\\\\someserver......." because of the escape
characters but that didn't work in any mode). Does Visual Studio .Net
access the file under a different user account in design mode than
ASP.Net accesses it at run-time? What security permissions must I
grant on the server with the Crystal Report? For example, do I grant
access to the machine with the app on it or to a user on the machine?

Thanks in advance,
Shannon
