JerryB,
Thanks for your reply. I just checked it today as I was inspired to fix this nagging issue, which has been lingering for some time now.
I am new to SQL too, and I am not a software person but just someone trying to improve things around the shop. I had the IT admin add another user ID and password, but I am not sure how to log onto the database other than windows. Is that a setup in Infopath?
I did not use the 'trusted connection' in the SQL Server login, rather used the SQL login, but that did not seem to work either. I still got the frequenct login box.
Any additional information would be helpful.
Thanks,
Dustin
