Hello, I recommend you use PDO and odbc to connect to MS SQL. Other connection methods have limitations with MS SQL including: 1.) varchars limited to 256 2.) no support for extended characters Aspen -----Original Message----- From: Dale Attree [mailto:dale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2006 5:14 AM To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: SQL Server 2005 Importance: High Hi all, I am having trouble connecting to SQL Server 2005. I have installed it with mixed mode authentication. When I call mssql_connect('localhost',$username,$password), I get a PHP error saying unable to connect to server. In the PHP manual, it says something about an "interfaces" file. Where would I find this file? Kind Regards, Dale
