Actually that isn't quite what I meant.

Its use is mainly for new installations. Is the current PC a 'server' or
a workstation. If it cannot detect the correct registry keys then it
assumes it is a workstation and attempts the server login provided. If
it detects sql server and the instance name then it knows to set itself
up as a server and go ahead. It gives us the ability to remove a layer
of complexity from the user at the point of first time install.

Running day to day, it just tries to connect with the last good
connection string. This stuff kicks in when the connection fails.
