Solution 2

Firstly, Solution 1 is OK. Apart from that Check by pinging the Server once. Also, before writing Connection String use @ (Verbatim)

Pinging the server isn't necessary I think. Connection.Open will simply throw an Exception if it can't login (or timeouts, a few seconds wait I guess). Catch the Exception and handle it.
@ would be necessary in my example yes. Didn't think of it as a VB programmer.
My 5 for the additions though :)

Solution 1

In exactly the same way as you would normally do. Except your connectionstring would use the server name or IP. For example: "Data Source=1.2.3.45\MyCompany;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"
You should make sure the server allows remote connections though.

Thanks alot dear, i have posted an other question please have a look on that question too.

i have another question,

Can i use any variable in which IP Address or server name is saved, for example i have save IP Address in variable "IPAddress" and place in the server path as given below...!

"Data Source=IPAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"

That would work as any other string concatention...
String connString = @"Data Source=" + IPAddress + ";Initial..."
Or use String.Format as an alternative.

"string strFile = "D\\WORKS\\MyData.mdb";
string strPass ="MDBPassword";

string connectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + strFile + ";Jet OLEDB:Database Password=" + strPass + ";";"
