Hello,

I have found an microsoft atricle (http://support.microsoft.com/id=884457) that gives information how to connect an adp access file with an SQL server. This works perfect for a local server but I can't get it to work with a SQL on a network. Does anybody know the way how to automatically connect with a SQL on a network?

Thanks in advance,
Sven.

Use the SQL Server Configuration Manager to enable network protocols.

To enable network protocols

* Click Start, point to All Programs, Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Configuration Tools, and select SQL Server Configuration Manager.

* Expand the SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration item.

* Select you SQL Server 2005 instance name.

* In the right-hand pane, perform one or both of the following:
For Agenda Manager 7.1/7.2: Double-click Named Pipes and set the Enabled option to Yes.

* For Laserfiche Server 7.2 and Workflow Suite 7: Double-click TCP/IP and set the Enabled option to Yes.

* You must restart the SQL Server service before the changes take effect.

Hello,

the thing is when I start up SQL server 2005 en type in the name of the server I can connect to that server. But in the SQL Server Configuration Manager the servername isn't visible (only the local servers are visible) ...
