How do I determine my connectionString?

LazyPrinzez
I wanted to connect VB.net and SQL (I'm not sure if that's what I should call it). I don't know exactly how the connection goes. I searched and found the common solution about using an SQL Connection. The main problem is, I don't know what to write as connectionString because I'm so new to it.

My database is in the computer I'm using.
