The connection strings for Connection 1 and Connection 2 are the same. Connection 2
connects to a more recent version of the
TdsDriver driver. You should pass the driver name
to this function to fully qualify the connection name you want to return.
Arguments
connString, {driverName}
■ The connString argument is the connection string that gets the connection name.
■ The driverName argument, which is optional, further qualifies the connString
argument.
Returns
A connection name string that corresponds to the connection string.

The following code returns the string "EmpDB":
var connectionName = MMDB.getConnectionName ¬
("dsn=EmpDB;uid=;pwd=");
MMDB.getConnectionString()
