Bernhard,
This maybe of the point in your case, but have you considered using integrated security? You could store the username and password encrypted, but then you have the added problem of securing the encryption key.

Hi, another Question from the new guy. I want to pass the username and password for the database to the AdoNetAppender. The two ways I found were: * Plaintext in the config file. * 'Plaintext' in the sourcecode. Both ways are not optimal, so were I missing something? Is there a smarter way of passing a password? Thanks in advance. Regards Bernhard _____ Connect to the next generation of MSN Messenger Get it now! <http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch80/default.aspx?locale=en-us&source= wlmailtagline>
