Connection string documentation?

How am I supposed to know the connection string when creating a connection object to a SQL Server database? I don't see the syntax documented anywhere.

Connection Strings

In a standard security scenario, the connection string is normally:

Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;

Other formats are used for trusted and more ramified security connections.

Good site for this is: h t t p(colon slash slash)(woo-woo-woo)(period)connectionstrings(period)com(slash)sql -server-2008
