I apologize for such an elementary question. My connection string requires a data source. Is that the server name? The DB name is the Initial catalogue, so that isn't the data source. Thanks for the help

It's the server name if you're using a back-end database such as SQL Server,
but with an Access database it's actually the path and name of the mdb file.
