Accessing SQL Server Databases from Networked PC

[Jim Richards]

Hello all. I have just built another PC (New PC)and have it connected to my
Original PC via a LAN. I have my SQL Server 2000 installed on the Original
PC. Both PCs use WinXP Pro OS. I believe I now have to install the Client
Tools on the New PC but after that, how do I access the SQL Server that is
on the Original PC. The SQL Server is setup with mixed (both Windows
Authentication and SQL Server Authentication) . Just how do I use the SQL
Query Analyzer that I just installed on the New PC to connect to and
retreive data from the SQL Databases which are on the Original PC? Thanks
in advance for any help, Jim.

Hello all. Dissregard this request for assistance as I was able to figure it
out. I can now connect the New PC to the SQL Server in the Original PC,
write my query and the results are displayed on the New PC over the Network.
Have a good day. Jim.
