"ExecuteReader requires an open and available Connection.The connection's current state is closed"
***I know NOTHING about SQL, I am stumbling through this crap***
I have three computers, all running XP; lets call them OS01, OS02, and OS03
-OS01 and OS02 both have SQL management studio installed
-OS02 host the Database
-All three computers should be able to access the database and manipulate the data through a VBA coded front end/GUI
-OS02 works fine
-OS01 gives no errors, SQL management studio does not list OS02 as a connection option under the network tab.
OS03 shows it is attempting to connect but then errors with the above message.
Is my issue on OS03 because I do not have the management studio installed? the VBA code calls the server and Database directly so i would assume the studio was not needed.
on OS01 I have checked the server name...
