I have an RMS database that allows me to connect to the DB in administrator 'connect' however if I test the db connection I get error 2147467259 Cannot open database requested in login'dtabasename 'Login fails.

 Store manager, POS and queries will not run.Any ideas?

    That is incorrect, if the BC is missing you do not get a (-2147217843) error. You get an error that says you must use management studio to connect to this database. Jeff is correct it is password/user login/permissions not a BC.

    Mabuhay! Is there any backward compatibility installed on your PC?

    based on our experience we cant use the studio when there is no backward compatibility installed.

    SQLServer2005_BC

    If this is SQL2k8 or higher, you need to enable and change the order of the protocols.

    Start | Microsoft SQL Server 2k8 | Configuration Tools | on the right, right click and stop the SQL Service | on the left. SQl Protocols | on the right Enable both the TCP/IP and Named Pipes | on the left, SQL client | on the right, right click on TCP/IP | select Order | click the down arrow on the far right so that Named Pipes is on top | lastly, restart the SQL Server Service, right click on it and Start

    The login u r using doesn't have permission to access ur RMS database, so try a different login and open sql management studio to check users' permissions
