Yes, so true, what seems so simple with connection strings turns out to be a deep dive sometimes. We had a EF project just the other day where Visual Studio Explorer could see our database ServerName\EntityName but as soon as we put the very same connecting string into EF we simply could not connect. We never did figure that one out but had plenty of "Fun" trying.
