Peter - Thanks. I want to try it. I do not know how to find the port number the named instance is listening on. Do you know how to find what its number is? Dan Decker Microsoft Dynamics GP Developer www.Business-Computers.com (303)499-2039

I believe that should work. I think that would be something like this: jdbc:sqlserver://KEYSTONE:####;databaseName=TWO ...where you replace #### with the port number. ~Peter -----Original Message----- From: Dan Decker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 4:28 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Tomcat using MS SQL2000 Named Instance I am trying to get Tomcat to connect to a MS SQL2000 Named instance rather than the default instance.
