Could someone explain briefly or point in a good
direction. Am I able to build a database using vb.net
2003 without having to already have a sql or access
database to connect too. I cannot seem to find where I
would start to create the tables and then the forms.

Thanks
Jim
 
Jim,
This sounds if you thinks that VB.net is something that is the same as
MS-Access.

It is not, you can connect VB.net to a lot of databases but it is not
something like MS-Access.

On the otherhand you can make nice form with it when you have those
databases.
Almost every database is connectable to VB.net but for the best performance
there have to be a SQL or a OLEDB connector.
It is too possible with ODBC connections, but that is not advised because
you mis than a lot of the possibilities.

I hope this give some route.

Thank you Cor,

Yes it does give me better sense of direction. You
affirmed that if I want to use all possibilities with
VB.NET then connection to an existing database or one
created externally (sql, oracle, etc.)is the most
efficient way. This is the answer that I was looking for.
