Getting ConnectionString from Server Explorer's UIHierarhyItem

[Predrag Tomasevic]

What I want is simply to get connectionString related to currently selected
DataConnection from ServerExplorer.

When I select item from Server Explorer => right click => Properties,
Property window displays that type of current node is IDispDataVwDataConn. I
found this interface in VS7DataProject... and then tried to use it by
pointing && casting to currently selected DataConnection (which I got as
UIHierarhyItem) but it won't work (I tried UIHierarhyItem.Object also of
course).

Any help on this subject is extremly welcome... and if I haven't presented
my question well just mail me and I'll try to explain better what I want ;)

Tnx in advance...

I have just the same problem you have and I'm completely lost...If I try to debug, I always can see tha myUIHierarchyItem.Object is an __COMObject and I can't find a wayto convert it to an IDispDataVwDataConn or even ask if it is aIDispDataVwDataConn or IDispDataVwNode or whatever.

Does anyone can kindly tell us how to get that?

Thanks a lot for your time and knowledge
