I need to know the proper content for the connection string of the sqlconnection class.

I have uploaded a database to the DiscountAsp sql2000 server - I have uploaded my application (Visual Studio 2003) ASP.net 1.1. The database has the proper information - the application runs fine until it attempts to fill a dataset from the sql database file. I need to know the proper content for the connection string of the sqlconnection class. Also any other factors which would contribute to a successful connection would be helpful.

Hrm... it would be nice, if when searching our KB for "connection string", the information you are looking forcame up. oledb comes up, php comes up, but no sqlconnection info in the kb??? oh well.


Well, the good news is if you go to mssql manager page (https://my.discountasp.net/mssql-manager.aspx) you can see the connection string you will need to use below the usage meter.

Right - the problem is that when I paste that connection string into my Visual Studio sqlConnection ConnectionString property - then I get a copilation error -


Improper Property Value: "'Data Source'.

 

Please paste your source code
