------------------------
You said 2005? Your Driver statement doesn't look right. Try either
versions of text for your conn string:
SQL Native Client 9.0 ODBC Driver
Type: ODBC Driver
Usage: Driver={SQL Native Client}
Manufacturer: Microsoft
Standard security
Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;
Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;
Are you using SQL Server 2005 Express? Don't miss the server name
syntax Servername\SQLEXPRESS where you substitute Servername with the
name of the computer where the SQL Server 2005 Express installation
resides.
Trusted Connection
Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;
Trusted_Connection=yes;
