No, I had already tried this website and all their examples for Sql Server
2000 connection strings. They did work from my test application but they did
not work with DbNetGrid. I had to create an ODBC Data Source in
Administrative Tools. Then it worked fine.
Thanks all for help.

Thanks, I did not know that.
And no need really to cross-post so much!
I hope your intention was to say that to the original poster.

Hi,
I am designing a webpage with the DbNetGrid control on it. I am
folloing its documentation and using the following connection string to
connect the grid control to a database:
'Provider=SQLOLEDB;Driver={SQL
Server};Server=(local);Database=pubs;Trusted_Conne ction=yes;'
But DbNetGrid keeps giving me the following error. I have tried
different variations of this connection string but nothing seems to
work.
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no
default driver specified (-2147467259)
You have to create ODBC Data Source object as the message states.
Look for Data Sources icon in the Control Panel/Administrative Tools.
Then use its name in the connection string.
