Coonection to SQL Server 2005 Express

What is the proper connection string for SQL Server 2005 Express on XP?
I want to connect to the master database by VBScript as the following:
Dim computer : computer = CreateObject("WScript.Network").ComputerName
Dim connectionString:connectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated
Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=Master;Data
Source=" + computer
Dim connection
Set connection= CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
With connection
.Provider = "SQLOLEDB"
.ConnectionString = connectionString
.Open
End With
It works on MSDE. But I got a "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect())
.]SQL
Server does not exist or access denied. " error for SQL Express. I have the
TCP/IP enabled for SQL Server Express too.
Thanks.take help from KBA
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...b;EN-US;Q328306 and
http://www.connectionstrings.com/ for all types of connection strings.
