Login Dialog

Hi All - have an application I am maintaining which has worked without issue
on numerous machines. Recently on a new installation everytime the system
tries to access any of the local paradox tables the standard login dialog
box is appearing. If the user just presses ok then the application continues
without problems but it is a pain for him to have to do this all the time.
Now I know a TDatabase component could have been used, but this code has run
as is for a few years and we have never come across this login dialog box
appearing before.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve this or what could be causing this will
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Re:Login Dialog

Yes because sending the same message to a whole 2 newsgroups takes up so
much bandwidth and storage, and causes so many problems..........
Thought it might have been relevant to both as there didn't seem to be a
"borland.database.preventing.login.dialog" newsgroup to narrow down who
might read it and be able to answer the question.
Sorry

Re:Login Dialog

If its been used for several years, maybe its not compatiable with some components in the OS, or OS updates. I would be tempted to revert to a earlier OS, maybe ME or 2k and see the difference. Then if you need to, seek the differences in the OS updates.

I have no idea what is causing the Login dialog to appear on this
particular installation. The standard way to prevent the Login dialog
is to use a TDatabase component and set the LoginPrompt property to
false.
