Q: 

Using the Add Connection dialogue in a winforms application.

Is there any way or object in the .Net Framework to help me show the "Add Connection" dialogue from my C# code? I'm trying to develop my custom Code Generator for MVC and I need the application to be able to connect to different types of databases like SQL Server, SQLite and SQL CE.

I've done a 30 minutes search already, with no results. google keeps talking about Office ConnectionManager all the time which is obviously not what I'm seeking.

Thanks :)
