Hi,
I have been reading through numerous posts and various web pages on how
to connect to a database and just need some assistance with this please.
I have been given a connection string (from a C# app) with numerous
elements such as server name database name password etc, can I make a
connection with just the connection string or do I need to find out
more, for example what type of database it is that I am trying to
connect to? What are the minimum parameters needed for connecting to a
database?
This is new ground for me so apologies for my ignorance.

Thanks in advance for any advice
