Connection String in VBA

Can someone tell me the vba code for simply making a connection to SQL
SERVER 2000 using NT Authentication.. my datalink is giving me a weird
error, and the only work around i've read about is making the
connection in VBA

The connection string should look something like the following:

"Provider=SQLOLEDB;Initial Catalog=MyDatabase;Data
Source=MyServer\MySQLInstance;TRUSTED_CONNECTION=Y es;"
