Password required for DB connect

I just bought the desktop version.  When I try to connect to a database, I’m
asked for a User ID and Password (which seems like odd for a off-the-shelf
software setting).    How do I disable it?

Thanks,

Mike

You cannot buy the Desktop version (client). What you have to buy is the Server with a number of user licenses. The Desktop version is free.

On the other hand, it's expected that you need a user and password in order to connect to any database. That is a database security requirement, not QlikView.

If you can post an image of what you're having trouble it'll be easier to help.
