Question

I have been asked to make a program that gets the Sql database settings of the user.
And if possible, I wanted it to be automated while i’m at it.

I need to get a few values, like the username and password as mentioned in the title. Also, I need to get the db number off a certain database (let’s call it rabbit for now).

And to tell the truth… this is where i’m stuck as i have never used SQL.

edit:
a little formulating mistake, i do have knowledge of SQL but i have never used it with a C# combo (in fact all i know is theory of it).
