Hi,
I have a program written in C/C++ compiled with MS Visual Studio 6.0 that
fails to connect to a french SQL Server instance (probably a 2005 instance)
with "SQL Server does not exist or access denied".
I can connect to the instance with SQL Server Management Studio with no
problems.
Is the OLE interface for VS6.0 not capable of this?
John.

I doubt it had anything to do with the code page of the instance. I would try
to modify the connection string to make the server name as specific as
possible. For instance, try the IP address followed by a comma and the port
number (e.g. tcp:30.5.183.110,1433).
