    I found a article in Microsoft MSDN....link is

    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/914277

    I done settings as they said in the article. Now I am getting new error as..... 

    An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.)

    Please any one reply me..urgent

    That article is only relevent for remote connections, ie, from wireless. I presume this is not your problem, in that you are trying to connect to the server from your own computer. If this is the case, then your connectionString is incorrect. More details will help.
