ODBC DSN Connections
Using an ODBC DSN (Data Source Name) is a two step process.

1) You must first create the DSN via the "ODBC Data Source Administrator" program found in your computer's Control Panel (or Administrative Tools menu in Windows 2000). Make sure to create a SYSTEM DSN (not a USER DSN) when using ASP. You can also create the DSN via Visual Basic code.

2) Then use the following connection string - with your own DSN
name of course.

ODBC - DSN
oConn.Open "DSN=mySystemDSN;" & _
           "Uid=myUsername;" & _
           "Pwd=myPassword"

ODBC - File DSN
oConn.Open "FILEDSN=c:\somepath\mydb.dsn;" & _
           "Uid=myUsername;" & _
           "Pwd=myPassword"
For more information, see:  About ODBC data sources and  
How to Use File DSNs and DSN-less Connections

Note: The problem with DSN is that Users can (and will) modify or delete them by mistake, then your program won't work so well. So it's better to use a DSN-Less or OLE DB Provider connection string - with a Trusted Connection if possible!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ODBC DSN-Less Connections
ODBC Driver for Access
For Standard Security:

oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=c:\somepath\mydb.mdb;" & _
           "Uid=admin;" & _
           "Pwd="

If you are using a Workgroup (System database):

oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=c:\somepath\mydb.mdb;" & _
           "SystemDB=c:\somepath\mydb.mdw;", _
           "myUsername", "myPassword"

If want to open up the MDB exclusively

oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=c:\somepath\mydb.mdb;" & _
           "Exclusive=1;" & _
           "Uid=admin;" & _
           "Pwd="

If MDB is located on a Network Share

oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=\\myServer\myShare\myPath\myDb.mdb;" & _
           "Uid=admin;" & _
           "Pwd="

If MDB is located on a remote machine

- Or use an XML Web Service via SOAP Toolkit or ASP.NET
- Or upgrade to SQL Server and use an IP connection string
- Or use an ADO URL with a remote ASP web page
- Or use a MS Remote or RDS connection string
  

If you don't know the path to the MDB (using ASP)

<%  ' ASP server-side code
oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=" & Server.MapPath(".") & "\myDb.mdb;" & _
           "Uid=admin;" & _
           "Pwd="
%>
This assumes the MDB is in the same directory where the ASP page is running. Also make sure this directory has Write permissions for the user account.


If you don't know the path to the MDB (using VB)

oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
           "Dbq=" & App.Path & "\myDb.mdb;" & _
           "Uid=admin;" & _
           "Pwd="
This assumes the MDB is in the same directory where the application is running.

OLE DB Provider for Simple Provider
The Microsoft OLE DB Simple Provider (OSP) allows ADO to access any data for which a provider has been written using the OLE DB Simple Provider Toolkit. Simple providers are intended to access data sources that require only fundamental OLE DB support, such as in-memory arrays or XML documents.

OSP in MDAC 2.6 has been enhanced to support opening hierarchical ADO Recordsets over arbitrary XML files. These XML files may contain the ADO XML persistence schema, but it is not required. This has been implemented by connecting the OSP to the MSXML2.DLL, therefore MSXML2.DLL or newer is required.

oConn.Open "Provider=MSDAOSP;" & _
           "Data Source=MSXML2.DSOControl.2.6"

oRS.Open "http://WebServer/VirtualRoot/MyXMLFile.xml",oConn

           "Srvr=myASEServer,5000;" & _
           "Catalog=myDBName;" & _
           "User Id=myUserName;" & _
           "Password=myUserPassword"
Where:
- The Sybase ASE OLE DB provider from the Sybase 12.5 client CD
- 5000 is the port number for Sybase.

Note: The Open Client 12 Sybase OLE DB Provider fails to work without creating  a Data Source .IDS file using the Sybase Data Administrator.  These .IDS files resemble ODBC DSNs.

Note: With Open Client 12.5, the server port number feature finally works, allowing fully qualified network connection strings to be used without defining any .IDS Data Source files.

Remote Data Service (RDS) Connections
The following examples show how to connect to a remote database using the RDS Data Control. When using the RDS DataControl's Server/Connect / SQL properties, the RDS DataControl uses the RDS DataFactory on the remote server.  If you use the RDS DataControl's URL property, then the RDS DataFactory is not used at all.

WARNING:  The RDS DataFactory can be a major security hole if not setup and configured correctly! For more information, see RDS FAQ #24

WARNING: RDS is considered obsolete by Microsoft


RDS DataControl - Connect Property
With the RDS default handler disabled

With oRdc
    .Server = "http://myServerName"
    .Sql = "Select * From Authors Where State = 'CA'"
    .Connect = "Provider=sqloledb;" & _
               "Data Source=(local);" & _
               "Initial Catalog=pubs;" & _
               "User Id=myUsername;" & _
               "Password=myPassword"
    .Refresh
End With

With the RDS default handler enabled

With oRdc
    .Server = "http://myServerName"
    .Handler = "MSDFMAP.Handler"
    .Connect = "Data Source=MyConnectTag;"
    .Sql = "MySQLTag(""CA"")"
    .Refresh
End With
The corresponding CONNECT and SQL sections in the default handler \WINNT\MSDFMAP.INI  file would be:

[connect MyConnectTag]
Access = ReadWrite
Connect = "Provider=sqloledb;
           Data Source=(local);
           Initial Catalog=pubs;
           User Id=sa;
           Password="                (put all of this on single line!)

[sql MySQLTag]
Sql = "Select * From Authors Where State = '?'"
For more information about the RDS Default Handler, see: Q243245, Q230680, and RDS Customization Handler Microsoft articles

RDS DataControl - URL Property
To get records from a remote database

With oRdc
    .URL = "http://myServerName/AuthorsGet.asp?state=CA"
    .Refresh
End With

To save, set the URL property to an ASP web page

With oRdc
    .URL = "http://myServerName/AuthorsSave.asp"
    .SubmitChanges
End With
Note: You must use MDAC 2.5 (or greater) for this feature

.NET Data Provider Connections
SQL Server .NET Data Provider (System.Data.SqlClient)
The SQL Server .NET Data Provide allows you to connect to a Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 or 2000 databases.  

For Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 or earlier, use the OLE DB .NET Data Provider with  the "SQL Server OLE DB Provider" (SQLOLEDB).

Note: The SQL Server .NET Data Provider knows which Provider it is.  Hence the "provider=" part of the connection string is not needed.

Using C#:

using System.Data.SqlClient;
...
SqlConnection oSQLConn = new SqlConnection();
oSQLConn.ConnectionString = "Data Source=(local);" +
                            "Initial Catalog=mySQLServerDBName;" +
                            "Integrated Security=yes";
oSQLConn.Open();

Using VB.NET:

Imports System.Data.SqlClient
...
Dim oSQLConn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection()
oSQLConn.ConnectionString = "Data Source=(local);" & _
                            "Initial Catalog=mySQLServerDBName;" & _
                            "Integrated Security=yes"
oSQLConn.Open()

If connection to a remote server (via IP address):

oSQLConn.ConnectionString = "Network Library=DBMSSOCN;" & _
                            "Data Source=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,1433;" & _
                            "Initial Catalog=mySQLServerDBName;" & _
                         &
