SQL Server 2005 Express DSN File

[jtibbetts]

I'm converting to sql server 2005, my orignal DSN file sql server 7 looked like the following

[ODBC]
DRIVER=SQL Server
UID=sa
DATABASE=PCX-MEMS-SCANS
APP=Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
SERVER=PCX-DATABASE

the new one is SQL SERVER EXPRESS 2005

[ODBC]
DRIVER=SQL Server
UID=sa
DATABASE=PCX-MEMS-SCANS
APP=Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
SERVER=PCX-DATABASE\\SQLEXPRESS

I get an error when I try to connect to the database.

Hi jtibbetts,

Could you be more specific? Are you using LabVIEW, CVI, Visual Studio, the Database Connectivity Toolset? What error are you seeing (error code number, description)?
