2nd error update regarding vanishing tab names

Just had a look at the Titan newsgroups and it seems that this issue is already reported as a bug for the CTP3 release. Hopes that this will be solved in the next release.

1st error solved regarding Reporting Error CTP3

Just had a quick contact with Menno te Koppele and he indicated me that I need to install the SRS connector of the SQL 2005 CD. I just installed SP2 of SQL 2005, but that wasn't enough.
On the server cd of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4 CTP3 you can also find a folder of the SRSDataConnector. Please run the setup and this should solve your problems.
Many thanks to Menno.
