Hi.
This is my problem:

I create an ADODB Connection to an MSDE2000 Database.
The ConnectionString is:
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;User Id=sa;Password=ciccio;Data Source=MARCO;Initial
Catalog=TestDB

I create the ADODB.Connection and I open it.
I run the project in a Windows XP machine, when I test the ConnectionString
property all the parameters are there, also the password.

I run the project in a Vista machine, when I test the ConnectionString
property and the Password is missing!

Does anybody knows if this is a normal behavior?

Thanks

Skysurger

I'm curious to know why it's a problem?
