Crystal Reports asking for login with non-database linked dataset

Here's my problem:
   I have data I am storing in a data table and then putting into a dataset.  I have a schema I have created for the dataset defining each column type.  This dataset has nothing to do with a database, but when I try to use it as a datasource for a crystal report it asks for a database login.  Will Crystal Reports not function unless connected to a database   I have several instances where I would like to dynamically create a report in the aforementioned scenario.  Any information would be much appreciated.  I'm completely new to Crystal Reports and am just trying to figure out its innerworkings.

    Hello,

    Yes this is possible to do.  With Crystal Reports we refer to this as the Push Model for data access.

    To get more details on this you should check out our the Getting Started section of our developer zone at:

    http://www.businessobjects.com/products/dev_zone/net/gettingstarted.asp ref=devzone_netzone_nav

    Specifically I would recommend the .NET SDK Guide, the .NET SDK Additional Conceptual Documentation and Tutorial and the .NET SDK Sample Applications from Tutorials.
