Thank you Rick. I thought of that, too, and it seems like a good idea.
However, I still want to know how to connect directly, ie, a branch computer
accessing the server via the internet, with no VNC.
In my local machine I use the following connection string:
cConnString = 'Driver={SQL Native
Client};Server=RAFAELPC\SQLEXPRESS;Database=datos;Trusted_Connection=yes')
What should I add to it in order to connect to the server, which has a fixed
IP ?
Is it something like:
cConnString = 'Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=
\\123.456.345.1\RAFAELPC\SQLEXPRESS;Database=datos;Trusted_Connection=yes')
Please?
Rafael
