C#:
using System.Data.SqlClient;
SqlConnection oSQLConn = new SqlConnection();
oSQLConn.ConnectionString="my connectionstring";
oSQLConn.Open();
VB.NET:
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Dim oSQLConn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection()

oSQLConn.Open()
Name | Network library |
dbnmpntw | Win32 Named Pipes |
dbmssocn | Win32 Winsock TCP/IP |
dbmsspxn | Win32 SPX/IPX |
dbmsvinn | Win32 Banyan Vines |
dbmsrpcn | Win32 Multi-Protocol (Windows RPC) |
Name | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
Application Name | The name of the application, or '.Net SqlClient Data Provider' if no application name is provided. | |
AttachDBFilename -or- extended properties -or- Initial File Name |
The name of the primary file, including the full path name, of an attachable database. The database name must be specified with the keyword 'database'. | |
Connect Timeout -or- Connection Timeout |
15 | The length of time (in seconds) to wait for a connection to the server before terminating the attempt and generating an error. |
Connection Lifetime | 0 | When a connection is returned to the pool, its creation time is compared with the current time, and the connection is destroyed if that time span (in seconds) exceeds the value specified by connection lifetime. Useful in clustered configurations to force load balancing between a running server and a server just brought on-line. |
Connection Reset | 'true' | Determines whether the database connection is reset when being removed from the pool. Setting to 'false' avoids making an additional server round-trip when obtaining a connection, but the programmer must be aware that the connection state is not being reset. |
Current Language | The SQL Server Language record name. | |
Data Source -or- Server -or- Address -or- Addr -or- Network Address |
The name or network address of the instance of SQL Server to which to connect. | |
Enlist | 'true' | When true, the pooler automatically enlists the connection in the creation thread's current transaction context. |
Initial Catalog -or- Database |
The name of the database. | |
Integrated Security -or- Trusted_Connection |
'false' | Whether the connection is to be a secure connection or not. Recognized values are 'true', 'false', and 'sspi', which is equivalent to 'true'. |
Max Pool Size | 100 | The maximum number of connections allowed in the pool. |
Min Pool Size | 0 | The minimum number of connections allowed in the pool. |
Network Library -or- Net |
'dbmssocn' | The network library used to establish a connection to an instance of SQL Server. Supported values include dbnmpntw (Named Pipes), dbmsrpcn (Multiprotocol), dbmsadsn (Apple Talk), dbmsgnet (VIA), dbmsipcn (Shared Memory) and dbmsspxn (IPX/SPX), and dbmssocn (TCP/IP). The corresponding network DLL must be installed on the system to which you connect. If you do not specify a network and you use a local server (for example, "." or "(local)"), shared memory is used. |
Packet Size | 8192 | Size in bytes of the network packets used to communicate with an instance of SQL Server. |
Password -or- Pwd |
The password for the SQL Server account logging on. | |
Persist Security Info | 'false' | When set to 'false', security-sensitive information, such as the password, is not returned as part of the connection if the connection is open or has ever been in an open state. Resetting the connection string resets all connection string values including the password. |
Pooling | 'true' | When true, the SQLConnection object is drawn from the appropriate pool, or if necessary, is created and added to the appropriate pool. |
User ID | The SQL Server login account. | |
Workstation ID | the local computer name | The name of the workstation connecting to SQL Server. |
This one's from Microsoft, the following are from Oracle
This one works only with Oracle 8i release 3 or later
C#:
using System.Data.OracleClient;
OracleConnection oOracleConn = new OracleConnection();
oOracleConn.ConnectionString = "my connectionstring";
oOracleConn.Open();
VB.NET:
Imports System.Data.OracleClient
Dim oOracleConn As OracleConnection = New OracleConnection()
oOracleConn.ConnectionString = "my connectionstring"
oOracleConn.Open()
This one is used with eInfoDesigns dbProvider, an add-on to .NET
C#:
using eInfoDesigns.dbProvider.MySqlClient;
MySqlConnection oMySqlConn = new MySqlConnection();
oMySqlConn.ConnectionString = "my connectionstring";
oMySqlConn.Open();
VB.NET:
Imports eInfoDesigns.dbProvider.MySqlClient
Dim oMySqlConn As MySqlConnection = New MySqlConnection()
oMySqlConn.ConnectionString = "my connectionstring"
oMySqlConn.Open()
