Property Value

Type: System::String^

The value of the DataSource property, or String.Empty if none has been supplied.

If the value passed in is null when you try to set the property, the DataSource property is reset. If the value has not been set and the developer tries to retrieve the property, the return value is String.Empty. This property corresponds to the "Data Source" key within the connection string.

The following example console application creates a new OleDbConnectionStringBuilder instance, and then sets the DataSource and Provider properties. Finally, the example creates a new OleDbConnection instance, and uses that object to connect to the indicated data store.
