Michel,
Include "driver=SQL server;" with SQLConnectstring and change true to yes (didn't try with true before maybe it'd work too).
In VS2005 it'd work as is because it uses SQL native client and doesn't need driver specified.
For SQL2005 you can also use (if ODBC driver is installed):
Driver = {SQL Native client}
lnHandle = SQLStringConnect('Driver=SQL server;'+;
 'Data Source = .\SQLEXPRESS;'+;
 'AttachDbFilename="D:\Visual Studio Projects\Test\Test.mdf";'+;
 'Integrated Security=SSPI;User Instance=yes')
