Unlocking Bespoke Reports in MP2 Software with Crystal Reports 2008

Question:

Greetings all, I rely on MP2 software for managing my small business operations. While it has been effective so far, I am now facing the challenge of creating bespoke reports. I recently acquired Crystal Reports 2008, but I have been struggling to extract data from MP2. The file where I suspect the information is located requires a password, leaving me feeling bewildered. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Benjamin

The database password you are currently using is encrypted and stored in the MP2 .ini file. Check where you keep your MP2 CD to see if you have saved this password. It is common for users to set their password as "MP2" or "mp2". For further assistance, visit flemingtechnical.com. Hope this information is helpful. Donal Donal Fleming.

Which version of MP2 are you currently utilizing? If you are using MP2 Access and need to recover your database password, there are numerous tools available for this purpose. Conducting a simple Google search will yield several options, including some free ones. I concur with the suggestion from another user to try using "MP2" or "mp2" as these are commonly used default passwords set by the installer.

I appreciate your assistance! In a surprising turn of events, I had to utilize a recovery tool and discovered that the password was simply my own name - Benjamin.
