Hello everyone,
I have been looking for a while for a way to connect to a database using server authentication mode and so far this is the only thing I have found, if someone can help me out please. I got this from Microsoft pages but I haven't being able to find how
to query the database either.
Note: I'm able to connect to DB using the first approach but if I want to use the second I cannot do it
// Connecting to an instance of SQL Server using SQL Server Authentication
Server srv1 = new Server(); // connects to default instance
srv1.ConnectionContext.LoginSecure = false; // set to true for Windows Authentication
srv1.ConnectionContext.Login = sqlServerLogin;
srv1.ConnectionContext.Password = password;
Console.WriteLine(srv1.Information.Version); // connection is established
// Connecting to a named instance of SQL Server with SQL Server Authentication using ServerConnection
ServerConnection srvConn = new ServerConnection();
srvConn.ServerInstance = @".\" + instanceName; // connects to named instance
srvConn.LoginSecure = false; // set to true for Windows Authentication
srvConn.Login = sqlServerLogin;
srvConn.Password = password;
Server srv2 = new Server(srvConn);
Console.WriteLine(srv2.Information.Version); // connection is established
