I don't know, yet, how to use ServerExplorer. I am just trying to create a "Hello World" of the SQL Server connection (if you know what I mean). Changing Trusted_Connection to Integrated Security didn't solve the problem. I suppose next I need to create a log in (learn how) in the SQL Server and enter the 'uid' and 'pwd' in the connection string.
Thank you.
