To all, I have a VB6 application which looks at a SQL Server 7 database (which is on a development server), and I am using a mixture of DataEnvironment and ADO Controls for the application. However when it's finshed It will be moved to the live server so that everyone can gain access to it. The problem being that when I move to the live server I will have to remember to change all the ADO controls and the DataEnvironment connection manually (I don't want to have to do this if I can help it). What I thought of doing is have a table consisting of the ConnectionString, Username & Password and then a table of all the form names and ADO Controls, and somehow looping through the tables and setting the connections automatically. This is where I am stuck, I have created the tables and entered the connection strings etc, and I can do the loop which will loop through the records, but I don;t know how to set the connection strings, using the form names and ADO Controls from the tables. Am I being stupid in doing it this way ? Is there a better way to do this ? Can anyone help on this, as the application is almost finished.....? Thanks for any help in advance....
