Why do I get this message when I try to connect to a SQL
database running on a local machine. The server is up and
running. I am using MSDE on this computer and attempting
to access the practice database, Northwind. The only
thing that I have tried is to grant permission to access
the database to the user
ASPNET via the osql utility.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Gordon

Depending on the install of MSDE, it may not register under the default
local instance. You may have to specify the server using the format:

MACHINE_NAME\INSTANCE_NAME

For example, in the past, mine's always been MACHINE_NAME\VsDotNet, because
I use the MSDE setup distributed with VS.NET, which defaults the instance
name to VsDotNet.

I was minding my own business when Gordon blurted out:
