Subject: [ cf-dev ] OT: XP SP2 and ASP/ADO SQL Server Database Connection

Anyone care to tell me how to get an ASP ADO connection to SQL Server
with XP Service Pack 2 installed?

I have just spent a couple of hours trying to figure out what's wrong...

Looked at the ms knowledge base, but it's not helping!  I can make SQL
server available, just can't use it from ASP!  I have opened the ports
on the (entirely useless) windows firewall and even turned it off... but
to no effect!

Things to note before replying:
1) It worked before SP2 install! The connection string is not incorrect
(unless there is something else that needs to change...)
2) It's got to be ASP connecting to SQL Server
3) It's URGENT

TIA

Paul
