To build SQL Server OLE DB sample database tables

The CONNX SQL Server module enables access to SQL Server database objects through the Microsoft SQL Server driver. CONNX has been tested with SQL Server 7.0 and SQL Server 2000. Refer to the section on the CONNX SQL Server Database Module in the CONNX User Reference Guide, which is available online, within the CONNX product, and on the CONNX CD-ROM, for more information on the text boxes required to import SQL database tables.

Note:
SQL Server 7.0 can use OLE DB or ODBC provider connections.

  1. During installation, click Yes to install sample database tables, or click the Start button, and then point to All Programs. Point to CONNX Sample Databases,  and click Build SQL Server Sample Data. The SQL Server Sample Database Logon dialog box appears. Select the OLEDB Provider option under Logon Information.
