Remarks

This property corresponds to the "User ID", "user", and "uid" keys within the connection string.

Setting this property is not recommended. To maintain a high level of security, we strongly recommend that you use the Integrated Security or Trusted_Connection keywords instead. SqlCredential is a more secure way to specify credentials for a connection that uses SQL Server Authentication.

The user ID must be 128 characters or less.
