I am brand new to Crystal (1 week) so bear with me please.

I have created a crystal report from an access database. Although this access database doesn't have any security itself one of its tables is linked to a SQL server through ODBC. When i create a report in Crystal using the Access database it works great. When i publish this report to the server it wants some type of login information.

Under Database configuration (CMC) for the report i seem to have two options.
1)Use original database logon information from the report.
    Server = Location of my access database
    Database = ""
    User: ?
    PW:?
or

2) Use custom database logon information specified here.
     Select a database driver
    Server: ? Is this the SQL server or the server where my access database is contained?
     Database: ? same question
     User: ? Is this the sql user?

I have tried both can't get it to work. What login information does it want? Does it want the sql login information? What am i missing? Any help would be great. I know this is a lot of questinons but i am stumped.
thanks
