Use the IDataInitialize interface to create a data source object using a connection string. You can also retrieve a connection string from an existing data source object.
To build a connection string, use the prompting user interface available through the IDBPromptInitialize interface and then use IDataInitialize to get a data source object based on that connection string.
For more information, see Creating Data Source Objects.
