Hello,

I am having problems with connecting to sybase using visual studio.
I have installed Sybase Open Client and now have the drivers to create a
sybase connection.

In visual studio I have successfully created a connection to 1 sybase
database on a server (Server1) using tool --> Connect to Database.
However now everytime I try and connect to additional Sybase Databases on
different servers (i.e. Server2) it just creates a connection to (Server1).
Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

Lloyd
 
Let's see your connection string.

I am not using a connection string just yet, I am trying to use a visual
studio wizard.
I am building a web application, and I am just adding data sources to Visual
Studio using the add data connection wizard.
This is so I can add data manually (Create Tables etc)- I am not
programtically manipulating data just yet.

I have defined 3 sybase servers I want to connect to using Sybase Open
Client.
Then using the Visual Studio Data Connection Wizard:

I first click on add data connection.
I then click the Sybase ASE OLE DB Provider as my provider
Then I add my connection details and click OK

I added the 1st data source perfectly, (I can now navigate around the tables
etc.. )
However every time I try and add the other two data sources the wizard just
add's another instance of the 1st data source.

Even if I edit the server name in the last tab - it just ignores my
edits............
