Connecting ASP.NET to SQLServer,Somebody,Please!

It is now 3 months that we are trying to connect ASP.NET to a SQLServer located on another system.
However we act,we get a fatal error.
We need someone to explain the way of connecting to SQLServer step by step from either VisualStudio.NET or FrontPage 2003.
Our goal is to retrieve records from SQLServer and display them in ASP.NET pages,edit them,and return them to SQLServer.
Thanx in advance.
Mohammad,
in Server Explorer, register the other sql server. Once it is registered, navigate to a table on this server and drag and drop a small table from this server to an aspx page. This will create a sqldataconnection and sqldataadapter. Right-click the sqldata
adapter and select generate dataset. This dataset now needs matching to eg a datagrid, using the dataadpater.fill method and datagrid.bind method. There are loads of examples of this type of thing on the net and in books. Which part in particular do you h
ave problems with? Making the grid editable is more tricky as you'll need to use command objects. If you email me on my address here, I'll post you an example you can use against the northwind database to see how it works.

Connect to SQL Server 2000 trough internet (adsl connection )

Hi guys,

Can somebody tell me where i can find ( or explain me ) the steps to

connect to sql server using the internet. I am using VB6 (SP6) and SQL SERVER 2000

I want to set up asql server on a central location ( PC ) so that 4 different sites can access the data stored

Thanks for all help

grtz Robert

Instead of a ServerName in the Connection String, use the IP address instead (the port number may also be necessary.)

Server=10.0.0.1

Server=10.0.0.1,2500;

The above connects using IP port 2500 (the SQL Server default port on a single instance computer is 1433).

There may be firewall issues. Verify that the same port number is open through firewalls for the server and all computers that will connect to the server.
