SQL Server allows you to choose from a number of different network libraries that you can use when connecting. You can configure these network libraries when you create a data source name (DSN) for your data source. However, an alternative way to specify the DSN is to pass in the network library, which you want to use, with the connection string. This article describes how to specify the network library that you want to use for connecting to SQL Server when connecting from a Visual Basic application that uses ActiveX Data Objects (ADO).
