Error in connecting to Database.

[Nikki]

Hi,
I am developing a small web application which connects to MS SQL Server
2000 (Developer Edition). But there is some problem in connection
string, becaz of which it is giving Error and not getting connection to
the database. Please help me to solve this problem.
Thanks,
Nikki

Possible errors in the string can have:
- server name
- database name
- user name
- password

or you're specifying user credentials, where trusted connection ( SSPI ) is
expected....

Also it would greatly help, if you will tell the error, thats being returned
when connection fails....

are you sure that the server is running? try to connect with Query Analyzer
(QA).
If it will also fail, you can create specific user and then use his
credentials in the connection string.

string conn_str = "server=localhost; database=northwind;

Use the default user id of Sql server sa and password if any thing is set.
