yes.. 2.8 I do believe... connecting is really simple.. you need to build
a connect string.. I am sure you know this already.. I am just blowing hot
air.... if this helps.. check out my code that I use to be able to swich
from Local Develment server to then a web based public Sql Server....
you will see in that procedure I have simple checkbox relaying control to
what database is going to be used in the connect strings... then after the
switching I am opening the databases and also cranking open my threads..
