DAVID/ASPNET Sql connection problem!

I am having a problem with .net ms sql connections...

My situation: I log onto my computer (Windows XP Pro) using the administrator account.
I have MSDE installed, with NT authorization.
I created a quick connection in ASP.net Web Matrix, and ran the code using the ASP.NET web matrix server - It ran perfectly, so i know the connection string is good, and so is all the other code i used for the connection... I know that it used the administrator account to access the sql server.

Then i copied and pasted the exact working code i had in web matrix to Visual Studio.net, and tried to run it using IIS, but it gave the following error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Login failed for user 'DAVID\ASPNET'.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'DAVID\ASPNET'.

Source Error:

Line 11: Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand(CommandText, myConnection)
Line 12:
Line 13: myConnection.Open()
Line 14:
Line 15: ' Create Instance of Connection and Command Object

I only have MSDE installed on my PC, so i ran the following in DOS:

cd "c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn"
osql -E -S DAVID -Q "sp_grantlogin 'DAVID\ASPNET'"
osql -E -S DAVID -d myDB -Q "sp_grantdbaccess 'DAVID\ASPNET'"
osql -E -S DAVID -d myDB -Q "sp_addrolemember 'db_owner', 'DAVID\ASPNET'"
pause

So now ASPNET should have full access to the sql server. (Stored Procedures ran fine, and the roles and accounts were created successfully.)

So i ran the ASP.net code in IIS again, but still the same error!

I have even tried re-installing asp.net!
I havent tried re-installing MSDE because i dont want to loose my data, but if i have to, then i guess i have to... :(

What do i do??I'm sure you understood, that your SQL Server did not accept DAVID\ASPNET as a login name?! Either there is indeed not such a user, or maybe you took the back-slash instead the slash. Could you post your connection string?|||I will get the connection string to you asap - its at home, not at work, so only tomorrow...

When installing the .NET framework, the user ASPNET is automatically added. ASP.NET uses this user for all the interaction it makes with the server (in most cases). So anyway - the ASPNET user is there, and my computer name is DAVID, and so is my SQL server instance called DAVID.

Ill try with the forward slash instead of using a back slash, but im pretty sure that i did it the right way... I copied it exactly as the asp error page had it...

Datetime - Regional Settings

Hi,

I am using an ODBC connection with Visual Interdev 6.0 to connect to a SQL datbase and display SQL tables on a website. I am having difficulty displaying the datetime in the correct format.

It appears that the datetime is being displayed in a format that is independent of the REGIONAL settings on either the client or the server! If I change the regional settings on either machine, the datetime is still displayed in the same format.

Any ideas as to how to solve this much appreciated!::I am using an ODBC connection with Visual Interdev 6.0 to connect to a SQL datbase and

These problems could be rlated to our understanding of the stuff you are using. Basically, you seem, in addition, not to be aware of the difference between ASP and ASP.NET.

ASP.NET is the successor of ASP - and has nothing in common, codewise and usage wise.

THESE forums HERE are talking about ASP.NET.

I suggest you take your ASP question to news.microsoft.com - into the ASP groups there.

Getting a sensible answer ehere would be luck - I personally have stoopped working with ASP and Interdev yeawars ago ahd hardly remember anything from these hard times.|||Pass the date pre-formatted as a string to the front-end.
