I have a program that is written in .NET that is used in a Windows CE Pocket PC. The problem I am having is openening a sql connection to my sql 2000 database.
I believe the issue is because the server that is running sql is svr 2003 and I believe it is blocking it somewhere.

I have tried many diverent connection strings and I work fine to any svr that is running svr2000 but the svr 2003 I can't get a connection to.

Also since this program is being run on a Pocket PC it isn't on our domain but that shouldn't be an issue because it works fine connection to a svr 2k with sql 2000.

Got it fixed there was an issue with sp3 with sql 2000, the service pack was applied at one point but didn't take so all that was needed to be done was install it again. Version numbers were checked and it showed that it had the service pack but then a few days later it didn't show the correct version. Again just another microsoft fluke, but it is fixed now just make sure sp3 or sp4 is on.
