Window of recommended settings of the connection string

The connection string contains parameters with assigned values that are separated by semicolon. The most important is the name of the connection Provider, that is usually listed first. The other parameters are required by the corresponding provider for successfull connection.
 
Another option is connection via "Denominated ODBC sources". It means that in Windows OS configuration window "ODBC data source manager" the corresponding Provider is selected and configured for database access. This database connection profile has a unique name. The connection string then uses the connection profile name, for example:
dsn=UserNameSource;uid=NameUser;pwd=PasswordUser;Initial Catalog=NameDb;
Connection string:
