Rafael,
This will work on SQL Server 2008 and if you make the cServer_Name
"192.168.1.1\SQLEXPRESS" then it will work for SQL Express servers.
cUser="sa"
cPassword="sa"
cServer_Name="192.168.0.1"
cDB_Name="Data" && DBC Container Name Here
cConnection_String="Driver={SQL Server};" ;
+"Pwd="+cPassword+";" ;
+"Persist Security Info=True;" ;
+"UID="+cUser +";" ;
+"Database="+cDB_Name+";" ;
+"Server="+cServer_Name+";" ;
+"Trusted_Connection=No"

I am still trying to learn how to connect the head office with a remote
store, WITHOUT USING A VPN. (I know this is not a sound alternative
because of the security issues, discussed already many times in this forum.
However, I wish I new how to make the connection and what to set up in
the server to enable the store to enter its daily sales info into the
SQL Server directly.
Can anybody change the following local connection string to enable a
remote connection?
[DRIVER=SQL Server Native Client
10.0;SERVER=RAFAEL\SQLEXPRESS;UID=;Trusted_Connection=Yes;APP=Microsoft
Visual FoxPro;WSID=RAFAEL;DATABASE=mytest;LANGUAGE=EspaƱol;]
Details:
The head office SQL Server is installed in a Windows 2008 server
The W2008 server is accessed internally through a LAN
The VFP app is Client/server
The store also has a Windows 2008 server. The local LAN serves a number
of Windows 7 machines, running a VFP application based on DBF's
The need is to have the store connect at certain intervals (ususally
every two hours) with the HO and dump its sales data into the HO SQL Server
How should the above connection string be rewritten. Please do not refer
me to www.connectionstrings.com. I have been there, and can't make their
examples work
Thank you all
