Hi all,
My application (vb.net 2008) connects to sql server 2005 express.
When I hardcode the following it works with no problem:
But ofcourse I don't want the connectionstring hard coded.
So I put the connectionstring in a public variable (gs_ConnRead) and do the following, thing won't work:
The varable gs_ConnRead is filled with the exact same text as the first hardcoded example, so basicly it's the same.
Now, any ideas why this don't work?
Sorry if this is a very stupid question. But many thanks in advance for helping me!
