An outside developer has built a web app that uses a connection string starting out with Provider=SQLOLEDB which is great, just what I wanted. But, this connection string includes a parameter Workstation ID. The connection works properly, but what is this Workstation ID?

The only thing I can find on MSDN is it says that you use this to identify the workstation. DUH! But, WHY would I want to do that? How is it used?

TIA,

Mark
