Is this connection string formated correctly?

Data Source=**COMPUTERNAME**\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=*CAT NAME*;User ID=*USR*;Password=*PASS*;Min Pool Size=5;Max Pool Size=10000;Connect Timeout=5

I can't connect to the DB. Everythime I try to connect to a page within my site that uses DB data I get an: "The resource cannot be found." error.

Hi,

sems ok, dom′t know why you stared the USERNAME and COMPUTERNAME tey should just have no stars or quotes. You can just take also one of the connectionstrings here: http://www.connectionstrings.com they are work fine.

|||"The resource cannot be found." error is not raised by sql server db connection driver. So there is someother place in your app that cause the failure. Possbile IIS.
