I have a SQL Server database that only has one user/password to allow access
to the tables in the db. When creating the DSN ODBC linkage to the SQL
Server, I use the WITH SQL SERVER AUTHENTICATION instead of the USE WINDOWS
AUTHENTICATION, and enter the username/password to test the connection, works
fine. However, in access, after I select to LINK a table from this SQL
Server database and create the link, whenever a form in the database tries to
open the connection, it gives an error stating the {DOMAIN}\{USER} password
is invalid. The 'Use Trusted Connection' box is defaulted to checked (YES)
in this box, so access is trying to use windows authentication on this DSN,
even though it is setup to use SQL Server Authentication. Is there any way
to tell access NOT to use the trusted connection? Is this maybe a windows
Registry setting that can be changed?
TIA for any help!
