connection problem between C# and SQL Server 2000

[weihoe]

Hello. I'm a student desperately needed some help here :cry: .
Recently i got a program written in C# from a friend of mine. Its a
complete and running program my friend told, but he forget to tell me
one thing, that is, the proper way to make the connection between the
program and the SQL Server 2000. I've trying contact this person and
fails to get a reponse from him. I've tried to make the connection
before but it just not working. I'm a newbie in this programming
language. I was kinda hoping that you guys can help me out in this,
please. Thank you for your time.

I just add some codes

Try this

using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

try
{
SqlConnection sqlConn = new SqlConnection(strConnectionString)
sqlConn.Open();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
.....
}

Sorry.. <".">

Is it possible your connection string not correct?
