Yes, connection string wrong.

from VB use something like:

Dim CusInfo2 As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=servername;Initial Catalog=database;Integrated Security=True")

Data Source=servername Change servername for the name of the server SQL is installed.

Initial Catalog=database...

xID= CLng(Request.Form("lname"))

try

pSql= "Select leagueplayer, ltID, approved From leagueplayers where ltID='" & Request.Form("lname") & "'"

after ...where ItID= is a single then double quote.

after ....Form("lname") & is a double then single...
