"SQL Server Does not Exits or Acess Dennied"

My guess is your connection string, or file path have some error in it,.

ensure the path to your database is correct.
-------
Are you using the app.path method? if yes then this can cause problems if you put you *.mdb file in the wrong location.

Hello,

Check your SQL Server if its Running everytime you used it.

what you are using in establishing connection from your VB to your DB?

I am using the ADODB Connection for the SQL Server.

the Connection String is used by me

conn.Connection Timeout = 15
conn.Connection String = "driver={SQ L Server};server= " & Server2003 & ";UID=" & EmployeeLogin & " ;password=" & mahesh & ";database= " & emplogin & ""
conn.Open
If conn.State <> adStateOpen Then
MsgBox ("SQL Server is not started. Please contact administrator")
End If
connectDatabase = enumDBConnectio n.DBConnected

Here EmployeeLogin is the Seperate User created by the admin with all permissions for accessing the emplogin database.
