I am trying to connect to a remote MSDE SQL database. When I set up the odbc connection I get a connection denied error. The SQL server is on a windows 2003 server. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Thanks, LinsLo
 
First, can you ping the server? If so, maybe you don't have rights to the database. If not, maybe there is a firewall issue.
