Hi,

You can test with
ip,port

Sample:
192.168.10.25,1433

I used this config for connections with ODBC , you can see in the image.

Hi,

with "server,port" it connects to the SqlServer but on the wrong Database :shock:

This is my sql.ini connection string:
remotedbname=test,Driver=Sql Server;Server=localhost\myinstance,4444;Database=mydb;AnsiNPW=no;QuotedId=no;AutoTranslate=no;Language=german

SqlConnect(hSql) works fine, but when i query the current Database with 'select db_name()' i get 'master' as result.

I don't know why it connects to the master db.

I could change the db with "use mydb" but i would have to do it on every SqlConnect().

Put a break at the SqlConnect and see the value of SqlDatabase
