someone,
There is a dialog that VS.NET uses for SQL Server connections, but it is
a part of VS.NET 2005, and not really for distribution (using it is a little
bit of a hack).
You might be better off just creating a control which gets the
appropriate information from the user and then working with that.
Nicholas (and anyone else who knows about this):
I've been trying to find out more about using that dialog (MSDASC or
adodb if memory serves) from within VS2005. It seemed to work OK with
earlier versions of VS.
I've also found that it's useful for confirming/testing connections
even when the connect string is generated by other means.
I thought that it had been modelled in a new control?
