What error type do you get? Is it a wfqbe output or a server connection 
failure?

To connect to a MSSQL server you need to specify the host (in the form 
XXX\YYYY), the DBMS type (MSSQL server), the username and the password. 
I tested it this morning and it works fine.

At the moment this is not possible... I'll add it in a new version.

Can you send me the error you get so I can check it?
