Hi Jim

So did I. But true/false failed here with A2016.
I didn't ty the "Integrated Security=False" alternative.

Hi Gustav:

I am sure that the attribute use to be "true/false" and still is under certain circumstances. Why would the attribute be changed be changed to "yes/no". Maybe "yes/no" was more explanatory so some programmer decided to change it.(?)

Always used: Integrated Security=SSPI; or Integrated Security=False; attribute instead.

Hi all

I was about adjusting some code for setting the connection string for SQL Server.
The code replaces all the {n} strings:

    Const cstrConnect   As String = _
        "ODBC;" & _
        "DRIVER=SQL Server;" & _
        "Description=Brand name;" & _
        "APP=Microsoft(r) Access;" & _
        "SERVER={0};" & _
        "DATABASE={1};" & _
        "UID={2};" & _
        "PWD={3};" & _
        "Trusted_Connection=False;"

Did you notice the error here?

I didn't, and it took me quite a while with popping messageboxes about "Trusted connection failed" including wasted searching time with faulty answers to find out why.
Because it must read:

        "Trusted_Connection=No;"

Oh well. Details are important.
