error connecting to sql server 2005 from a small c++ program

hi everyone

first time using sql server.

I have problem connecting from a small c++ program in visual c++ express editon
to sqlserver 2005 developer editon.

It says
error connecting to the server...probably sql server does not allow remote connections check default settings...(provider sql interfaces Error 26 error of locating server or instance specified.

I am using the default instance when i installed the server.
I also chkd the default setting which allows remote connections. Also went into the configuration manager to enable named pipes
But still not working Something pretty basic I suppose doing wrong.

Will someone please enlighten..

thanks
