I've recently experience some trouble with the Crystal designer when
using a typed Dataset.

I create a report (or edit an existing one) and for a datasource I
choose Project Data --> ADO.Net Datasets.. and under there it lists
all of the datasets I have defined ... all is well there.. until I
choose the dataset I want to work with... now instead of opening and
allowing me to choose the table in my Dataset, it pops up a window
(titled "ADO.Net (XML)" ) when I click the Finish button I recieve the
error "login failed" details "Object reference not set to an instance
of an object."

I don't know why I'm getting this error or how to fix it. Until just
this morning, I would choose my dataset, and it would disply the
tables defined in the dataset and from there I could choose my
columns... I don't understand why it now is having issue with reading
my Typed Datasets..

help??

Find the option for "xsd", which is not the dotnet one.

I've had your exact issue, and I had to go the xsd route instead.

For some reason, it doesn't pick up on the ado.net (strong) datasets.
