Using SQLConnection for a Sybase Server

[canary]

I've been trying to figure out how to use SQLConnection in .NET to connect to a Sybase server. Have been trying to read up on bits and pieces but nothing really explains how you can connect to them. Does anyone know what syntax I should use if I'm connecting to a sybase server i.e server=LIVE_FORMS, db=forms etc..

Thanks!!!

SQLConnection is only for MS-SQL Server. To connect to Sybase, you'll need to use the OleDbConnection object. Or possibly use an OdbcConnection if the version of Sybase you have doesn't have a OleDb driver. (If you're using .NET Framework v1.0, the ODBC provider is a separate download).
