connection string exception : Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0

[Gaurav]

Hi,

I have a connection string
"Data Source=db1.myne t;DATABASE=test ;User ID=testuser;Pas sword=test;"
,
when i use the connection string to get a dataset of all the tables of
a database
it works without any problem, but when i try and call a stored
procedure i get an
exception trace like :

"...Additio nal information:
System.Web.Serv ices.Protocols. SoapException: Server was
unable to process request. ---> System.Argument Exception: Format of
the initialization

I googled a bit and have traced this to a probable bug, described in
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 823679
(http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;823679).

So my questions are :-
1. Is there something wrong with the connection string that i am
using,

2. According to the article i need the following files :-
Date Time Version Size File name

03-Jul-2003 03:20 5.3.17.17 709,920
Windowsserver20 03-kb821415-x86-enu.exe

Where can i get these files from?

I am using :
* .NET Framework 1.1 version 1.1.4322
* Microsoft Devel. Envi. 2003 Version 7.1.3088
* OS : XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 1
