ODBC on remote computer won't access

I'm attempting to connect to an SQL Server Express database from a remote PC, but it isn't connecting. I have a user account created in the database, and I'm using the SQL authentication with that user account. I have success with this if I'm on the server that the database is on, but not remotely. Both are on the same network, even plugged into the same hub. There doesn't appear to be any network problems.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Please follow this instruction to enable remote connections: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277
