**
It lists this:  Data Source Name: AR System ODBC Data Source

This is the same DSN I have on my Mid Tier.

** If you open up an existing report under the Database menu you find set 
datasource location.  It will list the DSN you created the report with.

How do I check what it was and how do I change it to work again?

** We had the same problem and it turned out to be that when the ODBC client 
was reinstalled it was created with a different Data Source Name than what all 
of the reports were built using.  Once we renamed the Data Source and provided 
the reporting UID, all the reports started working again.

I am using Crystal 10 to run reports.  I have it installed on my Mid Tier 
server. I foolishly uninstalled the AR User  client on the server which must 
have removed the ODBC connector. This broke  all my reports. I then reinstalled 
AR User and configured the ODBC settings.  Now whenever I try to run a report a 
log in box pops up asking for credentials  to connect to my Mid Tier server? 
Even if I put in my own ID and password it  does not go away. Can anyone help 
please? Keep in mind this is Crystal 10  .

Thanks
