Problem when connecting SQL through ADO

ben5000

Hi experts,

I need to connect an external SQL database from NAV so I decided to use ADO 6.0 Automation.
I've already googled for it but didn't find relevant entries...
Here is the code I use to accomplish this (example from NAV Programming Cookbook):

OnRun()
CREATE(ADOConnection);

ADOConnection.ConnectionString := CreateConnectionString(
  'BTE219365', 'Demo Database NAV (6-0)', 'MANAGER', '12345678');

MESSAGE(ADOConnection.ConnectionString);

ADOConnection.Open;

CREATE(ADOCommand);
ActiveADOConnection := ADOConnection;
ADOCommand.ActiveConnection := ActiveADOConnection;

ADOCommand.CommandText := 'SELECT [Name] FROM [Company$Customer] WHERE [No_] = ''10000''';
ADOCommand.Execute ;

CREATE(ADORecordSet);
ADORecordSet.ActiveConnection := ActiveADOConnection;
ADORecordSet.Open(ADOCommand);
WHILE NOT ADORecordSet.EOF DO BEGIN
  MESSAGE(FORMAT(ADORecordSet.Fields.Item('No_').Value));
END;

ADOConnection.Close;

CreateConnectionString(ServerName : Text[50];DatabaseName : Text[50];UserName : Text[50];Password : Text[50]) : Text[1024]
EXIT ('Driver={SQL Server};' + 'Server=' + ServerName + ';' +
        'Database=' + DatabaseName + ';' + 'Uid=' + UserName +
          ' ; ' + 'Pwd=' + Password + ' ; ')

When executing the CodeUnit I get the following error message:



I've checked both parameter of the ConnectionString and everything seems to be OK.
Here is the entry I get in the Event viewer (where SQL is running):

It seems to be a problem with the password. I've tried to connect other databases on other servers and the problem remains the same.
It's quite weird since the password is correct (I can connect through SSMS with those credentials)...

Thanks for your help

Here is a example too

There are some spaces in like

' + Password + '

in your connection string and use some naming standards as shown in example to use parameters and all..

Thanks for your reply,

It was indeed a space in the connection string (the one after the password parameter) that caused parsing problems. And thus was not recognized as a valid password
