I have made a project in VB.net in which i have used sql server trial version 2000.I have made the exe but when i run the exe a error message is thrown :-An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server.when connecting to sql 2005 .this may be caused as under the default setting SQL doesnt support remort connection.

Is it that trial version of sql doent support all this???what should i do????

Where you run it?
Your client should have MSDE or Express edition and your should attach your database to the server(MSDE or Express) installed on the client machine.
