ADO.NET SqlClient connection string - Data Source syntax
Is there any official write-up what forms can Data Source field take in sql server connection string? I'm aware of following forms:
SERVER
SERVER\Instance
tcp:SERVER,port
nb:SERVER
nb:SERVER\Instance
are there more forms?
EDIT: The essence of this exercise is not to construct a connection string. I am trying to parse existing connection string, and I want to know all the forms it could take. I appreciate everybody who pointed me to www.connectionstrings.com, and this site is useful enough, but it clearly does not have all the information. For example, it will not specif开发者_开发知识库y that it is possible to use construct like "Data Source=tcp:SERVER,10000" to specify that TCP must be used for this datasource on port 10000.
