Hello All,
Iam using Sql Server 2000. I want to Bind the Gridview with the Database, by giving the name of the
table in the "Use Data Source" option in the Smart Tag of the Gridview.
In the Add Connection Dialog Box I give "Microsoft SQL Server(SqlClient)"
as a Data source and "GUPTA-4E607DBAB\Administrator" as Server Name, which is set
as a Database Owner name. And I selected option "Use SQL Server Authentication" with "sa" user name and Password.
And gave Database name.
But when I tested the Connection I got an Error:-
"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When
connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that
under the dafault settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider:SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26-Error Locating Server/ Instance Specified)".
I urgent need to solve this problem. Anyone please tell me what should I do?
Thanks
