If you have another SQL Server (the older one) in port 1433, you should open 1434 (or some other port) for tcp traffic for this SQL Server (I recall you opened udp). Also make sure that the newer SQL Server is listening on 1434. When changing the network protocols, prefer using SQL Server configuration manager in SQL Server 2005.

Okay, I think I have something that might work for you. Each control (I believe) has an Attributes collection that you can programically add HTML attributes to elements. You can do this with the CustomValidator: CustomValidator1.Attributes.Add("class", "somevalue"); I am not sure this is persisted via each post. So you may have to run this code on each postback. Also, communicating via forum posts is difficult. If you don't give enough information (too much information is bad too) and I don't know your skill level, I get too general and don't answer your question properly.
