Re: Connection Timeout

It looked so promising!

Is there any chance that the timeout parameter is ignored in the Compact
Framework? I've tried all settings between 5 and 20 seconds, but the
portable still sits there for 90.

Any ideas?

The article he pointed you to does indeed describe how to use the
ConnectionTimeout property of the ADODB.Connection object, which is
similar to what you want.

If you are using the SqlConnection object on .NET 2.0 you'll notice that
the ConnectionTimeout property is readonly. What you need to do is include
the connection timeout in the connection string.

"Data Source=SERVERNAME;Initial Catalog=DBNAME;Integrated
Security=SSPI;Connect Timeout=5"

which will give you a 5 second timeout on the connection.
