Non-Local Data in VB2005Exp

I know that the ability to use non-local data in the Express versions has been removed, but i also know that it is possible to connect to a non-local database using code. is there anyone outthere that could help me, i cant figure out what that code is, i am trying to connect to my SQL2000 DB, so i can use one database on multipul computers. i cant figure out how to do that. or if it is possible, can you connect to a remote SQL Express database, that can be set at runtime?

Any help would be very appreciated.
