    Dynamic Database Connection

    Dynamic Database Connection

    Yep, that is right. I used the wizard to create the connection and also the query itself. I suppose I wonder if it is possible to the create the connection object manually and the queries with the wizard?

    Dynamic Database Connection

    Hello, I plan to use a text file containing the database address to be able to determine the database my vb.net application should connect to. Is it not possible to combine connection guides (e.g. SQLConnection) with a global connection variable (such as the text file?) Regards, Marcus

    Empty String to NULL

    Hello, I am using SQL Server 2000 as database. When a user updates a record, let's say phone no, and just erases the value already stored, then VB.Net tries to store it as a zero-string. This doesn't work that well and SQL Server throws an error. Do I really have to check every value with...

    Thanks for that. I will check out those two possibilities. I might try WebDAD first since I am not very familiar with XML. /Marcus
