I am creating a VB windows form applications , the working can be summarized as users fills some form and data is saved in sql server database.Now the problem i am facing is that i have to deliver this as a setup file to someone, and that person will further distribute it to different users to run on their PC, what i am thinking is that the code once installed on other computers and executed will give errors because of the connection string of sql server db as it will not match with that computer . I know that if a distribute projects i can put connection string in app.config and every user can change it according to his/her machine .But as i am giving a setup file how to solve this problem

I am creating a desktop application in vb.net by using visual studio 2008 and using ms sql 2008 as back end for my database.As I am creating application on my own system I know my connection string and I have created database manually on my system.
What I want is, when user install application on its system, the database created dynamically at that time on his system and he must enter server name, username and password for ms sql server that application should store for future use.If not at installation, it should atleast check and create database, everytime the user open the application.

My Ms-Access .mdb file is on my website. It is in the App_Data Folder
The current connection string is:
OleDbDataAdapter Da = new OleDbDataAdapter("Select * from SerialNo",
new OleDbConnection(@"provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;
data source=ftp://ftp.WebsiteName.com/App_Data/SerialNo.mdb"));
Where am I making a mistake in above connection string?
Note: CRs added in the code for better readability

My query is not the straightforward connection to MS Access.I am using a third application that places all data in an Access database BUT recently they changed the database so that it doesn't end in '.mdb', instead in another suffix: '.accdb'.The database is still an Access database but I cannot connect to it using the connection strings:[code]Previously I was able to use the second connection when the database name ended in '.mdb' (Database Name.mdb).

I will be developing a program using visual studio 2008 with ms access 2007 as my database. What I only use is this type of connection string: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:mydatabase.mdb;Jet OLEDB:System Database=system.mdw;" but i was asked if it is possible to put the database in sharepoint and I haven't even tried it before. The case is like this, the program that i will do would be installed on some computer units of different branches of the company then the database should be accessible through sharepoint so that every users can access the most updated database.

I've set up a test database to begin unit-testing an app that I've recently been added to. It is a 3-tier design (presentation layer, BOL and DAL) and this is my first time writing unit tests. I've decided to start at the BOL and I figure the best way is to swap out the ConnectionString (which has been passed along as a Shared String) with one that points to my new test database. However, I don't wish to change any production code. I simply wish to somehow redirect the app to the test database during unit tests.

I'm being forced to write VB code to be used from within ACCESS 2007.My desire is to use a leftover copy of Visual Studio 2005 to write a system that will use ACCESS 2007 as the db. The problem is that the company will no longer support Visual Studio and .Net development. That means that whatever code.I write must be accessible from within ACCESS 2007 for future maintenance.How do I import externally generated VB code (including forms) into ACCESS 2007, so that I can use ACCESS to maintain the code?I'll post this question to the ACCESS forum also, and hope that someone can save me from having to do all my development within ACCESS.

I want to build a console app, that when ran, takes a report from one Access 2000 database and copies it over to another Access 2000 database and overwrites the existing report in the destination database. I cannot figure out how to do this in code. I have imported the Access 9.0 Object library, but still struggling.

Below is the section I'm having trouble with at the moment:
Friend Sub glbHooks_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs) Handles glbHooks.KeyPress
newStr = newStr & LCase(e.KeyChar)
[Code]....
Neither of these worked, though the 2nd one would clean up my code a bit. Unfortunately I'm getting an "Expression expected" error on that "newStr = If..." line. I know there's supposed to be a "Then" somewhere along it but I don't know where it's supposed to be and the poster hasn't gotten back to me on that yet.

I understand the possibilities for encrypting a connection string in .net v4. I have a win forms application that will be used by multiple people on different machines. I understand that I need to protect the connection string at time of the app being first run on the target machine. However I am concerned that for a period of time my connection string will be unencrypted. I am looking for advice in how to deploy my app with the connection string already encrypted or encrypted during installation. encrypting the connection string in a secure way?

I'm developing an app in vb.net (visual studio 2008). I have a Teradata back-end that will be supporting multiple users in a production environment. I need to use variables in the connection string as the user/pass will be changed every 3 months.
For the gist of the application:
In it's most basic form - I have a search form which works correctly - it pulls results into a listbox and the user then double clicks the list box which will then open a form that is bound via table adapter to the back-end table (Teradata). My connection string is fine everywhere in the application. My problem is using a modified connection string for the "fill" function of the table adapter once the form is opened.
I'm using the code below for the on-load event and keep getting an "invalid connection string" - again, the connection string works fine everywhere else in the app, and the variables etc... are working correctly.
Private Sub adaptertest_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim DBConnStr As String = "Provider=TDOLEDB;Data Source=TDDEV;Persist Security
