How to connect database server with different network

[Narto]

Hi all,

I have problem with my database application. I have two networks with separate
network address(A and B). The database server at network "A" and clients
at network B. How to connect clients in B area with VB to the server in A
area with TCP/IP connection(the clients in B area can't found netbios name
server in A area but the clients in B area can ping IP address in A area).
For your information, my database server is SQL Server and this application
is not web application.

Regards,
Narto

On B side try adding sql server's alias into Client Network Utility (using
TCP/IP or some other protocol)
On B side try connecting to sql server with this alias (using Enterprise
Manager).
If you are using ADO then just set up a UDL file or create a connection
string and there you are.
