Hello NG,

the code below works, but if i add
the outcommented part of it (the Uid and Pwd section) the
function fails and returns false.

Why is that so? Do I have to add a addidinalt Parameter?

Regards

Michael

private bool AddSQLUserDSN(string DSName, string DBPath) {
bool ret;
     try{
           ret = SQLConfigDataSource((IntPtr)0, 1,
                 "SQL Server",
                 "DESCRIPTION="+ DSName + "\0" +
                 "DSN="+DSName+ "\0" +
                 "Server="+ this.txtbODBCServer.Text + "\0" +
                 "Database="+ DSName+ "\0");
//                "Uid="+ this.txtBODBCUser.Text + "\0" +
//                "pwd="+ this.txtBODBCPassword.Text + "\0");

           return ret;
     }catch(Exception exc){
           MessageBox.Show(exc.Message);
           return false;
     }
}
