You need to start doing basic research: search CodeProject and StackOverFlow for content on "C# client server"

The actual database access is pretty much identical to how you do the local database, the only difference is that you use SqlConnection, SqlCommand, SqlDataAdapter, and so forth objects instead of the SqLiteConnection, or OleDbConnection and so forth you have been using.
The connection string is difficult: we can't tell you what to use as every installation can be different. But...talk to whoever installed your SQL Server installation and they will either give you a connection string or tell you what the details are: Server name and login details. Then you can build a connection string from them.
Try setting up a connection in VS with the Server Explorer pane:
1) Open Server Explorer.
2) Right click "Data connections" and select "Add connection"
3) In the dialog that follows, select your DataSource, and database, specify the security info, and press the "Test connection" button.
4) When the connection works, press "OK"
5) Highlight your database in the Server Explorer pane, and look at the Properties pane. A working example of the connection string will be shown, which you can copy and paste into your app or config file.
