When I attempt to create a new Data Connection (SQL Server
database) through my .NET project (via the Server
Explorer), I get the following error message:

ADO Error: '

[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).]SQL Server does not
exist or access denied.'

I have admin rights on the machine.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

When the .Net framework accesses SQL server db it does so
using the user name "ASPNET". Set up permissions for this
user account on the db (using the SQL server enterprise
manager) and give it a shot.
