Do you know which module in VB.net will allow me to connect to a file (mdf/mdb) and SQL Server (not at the same time but to change in runtime).Or do you know of two modules which have the same API?
I'm building software which I will wont work both locally and on a server. But I don't want to have to go changing all of my code just because I'm using a different modules. I know VB.net, but I've never used databases.There's so many different database connectors its confusing!
,i write a simple program in vb.net 2005everything is ok when i run the program in solution, but problem appears when i run the program from bin eleasemyprogram.exethe error message is :'..bin eleasedbx.mdb' is not a valid path. make sure that the path is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file residesi dont have a clue about what mistakes i did..

I am using VB 2008 express and SQL Server 2008 express on a test basis and I used to connect VB express to a SQL database (created in SQL Server 2008 Express management studio) file and it work perfectly until my hard drive packed up and I had to get a new one, so I had to reinstall both of these again and copied my old databases from a backup I had. Now when I try to connect to the database file it cannot connect. Network related error or the instance name is incorrect. When I look at the advanced options in the connect dialog it shows my instance as .SQLExpress and my correct instance name is .SQL2008Express. I clicked OK on the connect dialog and manually changed my connection string to the correct instance and that worked but whenever I run the application in debug mode it give me the same error as above.

I am using VB code behind in Visual Studio 2008 to process data but can't figure out SQLConnection problems. I copied and pasted the connectionstring for my database from the explorer properties window but when I paste it inside the parenthesis of SqlConnection() it gives me an error. Also if I name a variable " dim myconnect As New SqlConnection" in does not give me all of the methods or attributes that are associated with it. Is this a Express Edition limitation or do I need to make some specific declarations to get it to work. this is what I have so far
Dim
connectString As String
Dim myconnect As New SqlConnection()

I am trying to connect to a database in VB 2008 express the book I am using is for an older model of VB. The book says to go to view and click on server explorer, and then a database wizard should open. VB 2008 express doesn't have a server explorer under the view section. I know what code I need to enter into to the two buttons I have I just do not know how to open the wizard.
