A typical Access DSNLess connection would be:
Driver={Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb)};Dbq=c:\somepath\dbname.mdb;Uid=Admin;Pwd=pass;
or an OLE DB connection would be:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\somepath\dbname.mdb;User
Id=admin;Password=pass;
I have an article at http://www.basic-ultradev.com/articles/ADOConnections/
that has some other connection strings, including Oracle. They apply to
UltraDev, but the connection string is generic and would apply to CF 5 as
well.
