I'm using BDS 2006 to try to follow a demo that creates a Windows Form Application - Delphi for .Net. The demo is using the Borland Data Provider. It begins by using the Data Explorer to connect to the Northwind database. This is an Advantage Database demo so the person has installed Advantage and Advantage is listed in the Data Explorer.
When I open Data Explorer I have the following choices: Is there any way for me to connect to the Northwind database? Or for that matter to connect to any database? I've tried several of the databases that Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express shows as being attached to PROGRAMMING\SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server 9.0.3077 - PROGRAMMING\Charlie). I only get errors, which depend on what I have done when I modify the connection from within Data Explorer. I can access the database in Visual Studio 2005. Sorry to be such a pain, but as I've said I'm a novice. Thank you, Charlie
