Cannot select Windows authentication when adding objects

The dropdown shows Windows Authentication as an option but it will not select but continues to prompt for SQL Server style authentication.

    Hi nigwil,

    In the Add Objects to Project dialog, if you select Windows Authentication then the application will try and connect using that authentication; if it can't connect, it will display a '!' warning triangle and switch back to SQL Server Authentication.

    Hope that's of help,

    Regards,

    Yes, my mistake, wrong security settings on the server I was attempting to connect with - it works fine now.

    perhaps a tooltip might help to inform users?

    thanks,
    nigel.

    Hi nigwil,

    There is a tooltip over the '!' warning triangle. Perhaps a tooltip on the line as a whole might be more helpful.

    Thanks,
