WinForms connect to Hosted Database?

[Guest]

I initially posted this on the WindowsForms group, but perhaps it's more
appropriate in the ADO.NET group.

Is it possible to using connect to a SQL Server database on a shared hosted
web account using sqlconnection objects?

What would the connection string look like?

Thanks.

Yes !! Though this is only if the shared hosting provider allows you to do
so.

What would the connection string look like?

Again, the specifics depend on the shared hosting provider. But you can
visit www.connectionstrings.com for examples and substitute the values for
your specific values easily.
