Cannot connect data source to the coded UI test

Question

Hi,
In my login page I have three types of users and I tried to connect data source to my coded UI test by giving credentials of these three types of users.
Here is my data file
data.csv
username,password
admin,1
Internal,1
External,1
I tried to connect this data file to the following code.
namespace BugTracker
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for _2_LogIn
    /// </summary>
    [CodedUITest]
    public class _2_LogIn
        public _2_LogIn()
        [DataSource("Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.DataSource.CSV", "|DataDirectory|\\data.csv", "data#csv", DataAccessMethod.Sequential), DeploymentItem("BugTracker\\data.csv"),
TestMethod]
        public void CodedUITestMethod1()
            //this.UIMap.EnterUserName();
            this.UIMap.EnterUserNameParams.UIUserNameEditText = TestContext.DataRow["username"].ToString();
            //this.UIMap.EnterPassword();
            this.UIMap.EnterPasswordParams.UIPasswordEditPassword = TestContext.DataRow["password"].ToString();
            this.UIMap.ClickOK();
            this.UIMap.ClickLogout();
This runs exact 3 times as I expected, but by only clicking on OK button. It doesn't type username and password.
this gives the following error.

Hi,
In my login page I have three types of users and I tried to connect data source to my coded UI test by giving credentials of these three types of users.
I could pass the user name but, couldn't pass the password.
[CodedUITest]
public class _2_LogIn
public _2_LogIn()
[DataSource("Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.DataSource.CSV", "|DataDirectory|\\data.csv", "data#csv", DataAccessMethod.Sequential), DeploymentItem("BugTracker\\data.csv"), TestMethod]
public void CodedUITestMethod1()
this.UIMap.EnterUserNameParams.UIUserNameEditText = TestContext.DataRow["username"].ToString();
this.UIMap.EnterUserName();
string testpassword = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("Password");
this.UIMap.EnterPasswordParams.UIPasswordEditPassword = TestContext.DataRow["password"].ToString();
this.UIMap.EnterPassword();
this.UIMap.EnterPasswordParams.UIPasswordEditPassword = Playback.EncryptText(testpassword);
this.UIMap.ClickOK();
this.UIMap.ClickLogout();
This gives the following error.
