Username / password prompt

[Ken]

How can I have the workflow prompt the user for a username and password instead of hardcoding it in the connection?

I'm trying to the web meeting thing to work but I may have firewall issues

Ken,

The attached is a simple analytic app that uses an ODBC connection (Mine happens to be named ALLDB) and then prompts the user for their username and password. Let me know if you were looking for something different!

I sent a private message to you. Perhaps you need to right click on the file and then choose edit?

I'll give it a try - Thanks!

It is supposed to prompt, which is the whole point of the example.  Rather than doubleclicking on the workflow which immediately executes it, just open it from Designer.  You should be able to pick it apart to see what's going on and then apply same design pattern to your workflows.
