Two questions: 1. Is there a way to connect to the SQL Server Instance and from there to select the desired database? 2. How to connect using the Database file.

I have a database with several tables, which I created using the designer. I am able to connect to the database and select data and display it in textboxes etc in vb code. What I have not been able to in code is to INSERT rows DELETE rows or UPDATE any data in the tables. I can do any of these operations using the Query Designer, but I want to do it in code. I can post some code if necessiary, but I thought it might just be some property that I had not set in the designer.

XCopy Deployment Of A VB Express App Which Uses A SQL Server Express Database?
May 13, 2005It's probably just a case of me not looking in the right place or not seeing the obvious, but does anyone know if a machine with just version 2.0 of the .NET Framework should be able to run a VB.NET Express application which accesses a SQL Server Express database file? Or is there an additional requirement for a non-development machine to have some kind of SQL Server Express runtime component in addition to the 2.0 Framework?It seems to be counterintuitive to expect that a VB.NET application would be able to access any kind of SQL Server data without having some kind of SQL Server host component (Express or otherwise) installed. But then again, it seems just as counterintuitive that Microsoft would require the download and installation of the new framework as well as a separate database runtime in order for the average user to run an application with accesses a local SQL Server Express database.To me, it runs contrary to the whole concept of XCopy deployment to require more than just the application's files and .NET Framework for an application to run properly. But nothing I've read so far explicitly indicates that a user would require anything more than the app files and the framework to run an application which accesses SQL Server Express data. But...I can't get any VB Express applications which uses a SQL Server Express databases to run on any machine that doesn't have SQL Server Express installed.What am I missing?(Apologies if this isn't the right group to post this in.

Connect .NET Express To SQLExpress?
Aug 26, 2010I'm so glad I found this forum. I have been trying for days to connect VB.NET Express to SQLExpress using a very simple, one-table database just for testing with no luck. Then I found this forum and the FAQ and used the template for binding a VB Form to SQL and with a few slight modifications and had success.
I'm connecting using the default instance of SQL (no user instance) and after substituting the the "user Id=" and "password=" section of the connection string with "Integrated Security=SSPI" I was finally able to get data returned from SQL server into VB in a Grid Control.
Now for my question. It's a general thing. Yes, I got that to work but in a complete database scenario, would the connection to the database be done in a Public Sub and left open throughout the duration of the GUI interface (passing in the user ID and password as needed) ..until the user logs off? In other words, the template example closes the connecttion immediately after retrieving the data from the database - and I realize this is an example of simply connecting. So, What is the usual scenario (in the real world for connecting and keeping that connection open for the duration of a user session. Where in the VB app should the connection string really be placed and the connection.(close) be placed?I'm not looking for an extremely detailed answer, just an "in general" scenario.I tend to dive in head first and so, I truly look for answers elsewhere before posting a question but haven't really found an answer to this exact question.
