A customer has been given access to a database to update their website by the web design people
The settings she has on a window are
Database Name: bobsmithretailDb
Server Name:bobsmith.com
Username:bobsmith
Password:******
She has a Test button to check the connection can be established
From her office she gets the message "Invalid connection. .Net SqlClient Data Provider" when pressing Test
The test completes successfully from her home
Initially I thought the Company firewall but from Home I can Test successfully from my Vista PC but not my XP Laptop
The customer has an XP office PC but Vista at home

Any ideas why Vista will connect but XP SP3 will not

I hope I'm in the correct forum for this poser, if not please advise

Thanks for all replies
