bottom here is my asp coding, for connecting to mssql2005
i know how to connect to mssql by vb using the com+.
but i want to try using the database connection on asp page.
i tried many ways, it seems that i am having problem connecting to database;
where i always receive the message below
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
May i know whats wrong with my coding? or may be i missed a step for the connectivity.
Thank you

You havn't told ADO where the server is, localhost/FQDN or IP address. try this:
This is a great reference for connection strings:
www.connectionstrings.com
Connection.Open "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=Db_Testing;UID=;PWD=;"

i placed them into vb6.0. It worked perfectly...
mind asking for another question...why?
You have to set the server somewhere, how can anything connect to DB_testing if it doesn't know where the server is? I can't answer your question because there are many ways to connect VB apps to a SQL Database through wizards and stuff and I wasn't looking over your shoulder when you did it so I can only make a stab in the dark...err maybe it was magic?
