Creating Datasource to SQL Server 2005

  • WHen I try to create a datasource to SQL Server 2005, the server is not being discovered on the "Which SQL Server do you want to connect to" dropdown.

    I do have allow remote connections.

    Thanks for advice.

  • The drop-down does not automatically search the network (or your local system) for all SQL Servers that are available. You can either select the browse for more option - which will then allow you to search your local system or the network, or you can just type in the server\instance name.
