Cannot connect to SQLEXPRESS via MS Enterprise Library??


Windows XP
MS SQLExpress
VS 2003
..NET 1.x SP1 {for Application}
..NET 2.0 {for SQLExpress}
MS Enterprise Library June 2005

This works from a command prompt

osql -E -S localhost\SQLEXPRESS
use <MyDatabase>
select * from <MyTable>
go

However on the same machine, attempting to use this
dataconfiguration.xml entry throws "SQL Server does not exist or access
is denied":

<connectionString name="SqlServerLocalHost">
<parameters>
<parameter name="database" value="<MyDatabase>"
isSensitive="false" />
<parameter name="Integrated Security" value="True"
isSensitive="false" />
<parameter name="server" value="localhost\SQLEXPRESS"
isSensitive="false" />
</parameters>
</connectionString>

Any ideas? Thanx in advance for your help...
