Hi all,
I'm having a tough time solving an issue and hope the experts around here can help.

I've written a small VFP9 exe that connects to SQL Server 2005 using SQLSTRINGCONNECT(). Running it from the VFP command window, it works like a charm. I run the exact same EXE from Windows explorer and an MS SQL Server Login error displays, Connection failed... etc. I have tried many different things to resolve this but just can't seem to solve it.

I am using an ODBC connection.

It seems to be a permissions issue but I just can't figure why the VFP IDE would have no problem but the standalone exe does.

Ideas?
Thanks,
Ed
