Hi,
I have a question regarding vb.net and databases.
I am using visual studio 2005 with an MS Access database as the backend.
I have used the server explorer -> data connections to create a connection to the MS access database.

My question is whether or not I can create a constant, bound, connection to the database where a dataset will always be filled/connected to the selected database? I have it working with ADO, but I am trying to create a local dataset to draw the data from because it is taking a long time to update the shared dataset tables. Thank you
