connection string pains and stuff...
I just hate going to bed when I've got a problem I'm trying to work through. I was up until early this morning trying to figure out what's wrong with my connection string to the Db. I did some research on the net and found that Sql Express 2005 looks like it can use the old format of...
"Datasource=servername;Initial Catalog=someDatabase;"
and the new format of...
"Server=servername;Database=someDatabase;"
What's strange is that neither way works. :-\ I keep getting an access denied or database doesn't exist error. I'll keep working on it tonight...it's probably some little thing that I'm missing or something, because I can make a data connection to it just fine through SharpDevelop, just not through code for some reason. *shrug*
If anyone could point me to a good location to read up on connection strings for Sql Express 2005 that would rock. :)
