I am trying to pre-populate an Adobe form with SQL Data, but am getting the error of "Connection for Source DataConnection failed because the environment is not trusted".

I am able to see the data from within LiveCycle. So the data is accessible.

I believe the ODBC data source issue can be resolved by using a System DSN but is there another way around this as I do not wish to setup a local System DSN for each user.

Thanks in advance

Will the form work in Acrobat (stand-alone not in preview mode)? Or is it failing in Reader? Adobe upped the security settings in Reader 7 so Reader users need access to a certified PDF. See Designer help on how to do that.
