Finding SQL Servers

  • i have an xp machine with msde installed.

    i have a nic installed.

    My machine is only for develop application and is not linked with any other machine.

    Unc names don't work because xp says "network cable disconnected" and

    Network resources are empty.

    Dmo function 'listavailablesqlservers.count' reports '0' as results.

    The same work right on NT4.0.

    There is another way to list sqlservers?

    There is a way to disable XP Media Sense function?

  • As far as I know it should still work. Did you have MSDE running?

    Yes J have msde running

  • Ok, you got me. I'll see if I have MSDE on a machine at home tonight, have to finish researching another issue anyway.

  • Installed it as the primary instance on my machine at home, installed Dev edition as the second instance, picks up both of them with no problem. Here is the code I used, nothing fancy:

    Dim oapp As SQLDMO.Application

    Dim oList As SQLDMO.NameList

    Dim v As Variant

    Set oapp = New SQLDMO.Application

    Set oList = oapp.ListAvailableSQLServers

    Print oList.Application.ODBCVersionString

    For Each v In oList

    Debug.Print v

    Next

    Set oList = Nothing

    Set oapp = Nothing
