Hi All, I'm a total newbie to Java Databases and am having trouble
getting a successful connection to an existing SQLEXPRESS database I
have residing on my machine. In the past I've always been using .NET
and using the IDE to connect to my datasources but now I am trying to
learn JAVA, I have installed the JTDS connector to access the SQLEXPRESS
database but am haing a difficult time getting it working..

My computer name is INSP9100 and the SqlServer instance is called
SQLEXPRESS, the database is called Test so the URL i'm using is..

jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://INSP9100/Test;instance=SQLEXPRESS

I've also tried
jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://INSP9100/SQLEXPRESS.Test

but never get any successful result.
The Driver I'm using is.. net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver

and these parameters I am feeding into the Database connection dialog in
NetBeans IDE 4.0

Any thoughts advice appreciated.

Thanks,
