Important
Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, RDS server components are no longer included in the Windows operating system (see Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 Compatibility Cookbook for more detail). RDS client components will be removed in a future version of Windows. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature. Applications that use RDS should migrate to WCF Data Service.
This code shows how to set the Connect property at design time:
<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:BD96C556-65A3-11D0-983A-00C04FC29E33" ID="ADC1">
.
<PARAM NAME="SQL" VALUE="Select * from Sales">
<PARAM NAME="CONNECT" VALUE="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=Pubs">
<PARAM NAME="Server" VALUE="https://MyWebServer">
.
</OBJECT>
The following example shows how to set the Connect property at run time in VBScript code.
To test this example, cut and paste the code between the <Body> and </Body> tags in a normal HTML document and name it ConnectVBS.asp. ASP script will identify your server.
