Re: how to disable an AdoConnection


the problem is that i need the connection string because in design mode i open the datasets , when im building the grids columns to see if the data is shown correct, or when im doing a raport file in raport designer.

and if i will relly on manually removing the connection string every time i build a version (often) ... sometimes im gonna forget and the clients will get the nice error at start.

i was thinking if i can stop from code the connection from connecting ... something like having a flag CanConnect and setting it only after i choose the server and password.

now i need a way to stop the connection from connecting i tryied on BeforeConnect if CanConnect=false then Abort ... but it still connects ...

removing the connection string in before connect doesnt help, because i think it already uses it, because even if i make the string empty in before connect ,.... it still connects.
