When you open SQL Server's "Server Network Utility" what protocols are enabled? It sounds like you need Named Pipes enabled as that is what your error message is complaining about. I have TCPIP and Named Piples enabled.

The 'remote access is set up as 1 already.

You said that

http://computername/HRHSKeyContact/HRHSKeyContact.aspx

works, but

http://computername/HRHSKeyContact/HRHSKeyContact.aspx?hid=2

doesn't.

What I tried to say is the web server did not have problem to display the web site.

Here is my aspx code. The query string should not be issue. Since

http://localhost/HRHSKeyContact/HRHSKeyContact.aspx?hid=2

will show the result as I expected.
