Hi Steve,
I am trying to connect to the NorthWind database which I placed in the App_Data
folder of my web service.
When I run the webservice, it runs in the address:
http://localhost:12345/service.asmx
So would I be placing the localhost:12345 as my host url for the database?
How do I set the northwind (or any other SQL Server database to run in the
localhost for this matter?)
By default the username for the SQL Server Express database is sa and password
is left blank.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Angelo

So, when I do this the window says "Simple MySQL Connection-> Create a
connection to a MySQL Database". At this point you plug in details for your
database connection.. .
Host URL: The IP address or hostname of your MySQL Database (If it's on your
local machine use localhost or 127.0.0.1 or your local machines IP address).
Database Name: The database you want to connect to (You will select a table
later).
User Name: The User Name you use to connect to the database above.
Password: The Password you use to connect to the database above.
You should then click the "Test Connection" button to see if Flex can connect
to the database with the parameters you have entered.
