    Remote database connection

    How can I link data controls in a VB application to a database that is stored on a remote server? The IP address is fixed if that makes it easier. I am not worried about security right now as this is primarily for my own learning experience.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Re: Remote database connection

    during database connction in connectstring you specify some thing like this
    dim myconn as connection
    myconn.connectstring("provider=xxx;Driver={};User ID=;Password=;Server= here you specify the ip adddress u got/server name"
    myconn.open myconn.connectstring

    this will connect to remote server.
