Question : SQL Server connection throws System.InvalidOperationException

Hi I am trying to connect to a SQL 2008 64 bit database from a c# porogram coded in Visual C# 2005 express.
My connection string is as follows.
                SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection("uid=UerserID;pwd=Password;server=servername.domain.local;Trusted_Connection=False;database=MyDatabaseName;connection timeout=30");
this fails with a systeminvalidoperationexception.
Can any assist me to get this working.

Answer : SQL Server connection throws System.InvalidOperationException

You get an InvalidOperationException when you try to execute an operation on an object but the object is not yet in he right state to be executed.

It could be because you don't open the connection.

Can you post the code what executes the connection
