Sorry for the newbie question... I've recently purchased VS.Net Pro and would like to know what type of database I should implement for a simple standalone phonebook-type application for home users (i.e. No SQL Server available). I believe that in the past, developers would have used MS Access databases - and I've also heard that Access databases could be created/designed using a utility in previous versions of Visual Studio... However, I've searched the Help and the interface of VS.Net, and cannot find a utility to help me design Access databases. I realise that I could simply use MS Access to design a database, but I'd like to know whether the absence of this functionality in VS.Net is an indication that I should be using some other technology. If this is true, what types of databases should I be using, and does VS.Net have an interface/utility for designing such databases?
Thanks in advance. Bryan You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
