From Paradox to SQL Server in Borland C++ 5

Question

I'm in the process of converting an old application to work with SQL Server instead of hundreds of Paradox DB files.

I'm using ODBC and most of the stuff is working.

However I do have a problem.

In some forms, is asking for password. I've double checked the TDatabase and TTable components, added USER NAME=sa and PASSWORD=****** to the Parameters and turned OFF the LoginPrompt

What's missing?

Is there any other way to initialize just once all the 5 databases and don't ever ask for password again?!

I've checked other questions here at StackOverflow, but didn't find a suitable one :(

Thank you

You can use SQL Server "Windows Authentication" mode. You can assign the database permissions to a Windows Domain group/groups or individual Windows users. In this case the users will be automatically authenticated to the databases without prompts.
