The connection string would be stored in the datamodule .dfm file. Even using a "Data Link File", if you open the connection in design mode the string gets stored in the ADOConnection.ConnectionString property.

Connection.Close; Connection.ConnectionString := 'FILE NAME=LinkFile.udl'; Connection.Open; HTH Roger C.
