{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            string connectionString =
                "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=SSPI;database=Northwind;server=(local)";
            CreateSqlConnection(connectionString);
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
        private static void CreateSqlConnection(string connectionString)
        {
            using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
            {
                connection.Open();
                Console.WriteLine("ServerVersion: {0}", connection.ServerVersion);
                Console.WriteLine("State: {0}", connection.State);
            }
        }
    }
}

The string is of the form major.minor.build, where major and minor are exactly two digits and build is exactly four digits.
