Question

I have a data connection

Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename='C:\\a\\b\\bd.mdf';Integrated Security=True;
Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True

With what am I supposed to replace .\\SQLEXPRESS and where can I find the desired information?

I used to have SQL Server Express 2008 but now I have installed SQL Server 2008 full version

Answer 1

It will be your computer name, but you have to replace more than just that.

Data Source=myServerAddress; Initial Catalog=myDataBase; Integrated Security=SSPI;
