| Hi Well this is my first post on this forum, in fact I have not even used SQL Server yet!My question is.... I have been asked to produce an application which will be a VB6 application with an SQL Server database behind it. I would like to be able to put the application along with the database on to a CD and run them directly from the CD once it is distributed. So the question I guess is can this be done with SQL Server i.e. can a table be exported in a format which will allow it to be queried in a standalone fashion? Maybe I have not explained myself properly but I welcome any questions which will help clarify my problem.Thanks Red |

| To access sql server you need sql server installed on the machine.You can install msde progromatically as it is a free version.Once that is installed (which includes creating the system databases on disk) you can access databases on removable media like CD's.You might find it easier to use access.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
