ODBC or OLEDB Application Sample Connection Strings
If you use ODBC or OLEDB connection strings, follow these steps:
Modify the ODBC or OLEDB connection string. For example:

ODBC
Driver=SQLServer;Server=ServerNameHere;UID=UserIdH ere;PWD=PasswordHere;Network=DBNETLIB.DLL;Encrypt= YES

OLEDB
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=dbNameHere;Data Source=ServerNameHere;Use Encryption for Data=True

Connect to the server that is running SQL Server 2000, and then monitor the communication by using Microsoft Network Monitor or a Network Sniffer.
