Not there yet... I can go through the prompts and successfully create my edmx file with all of the associations, but when I try the following code on the form load event:
Imports System Imports System.Data.EntityClient Public Class FormTeams Private Teams1 As MyCustomEntities Private Sub FormTeams_Load Teams1 = New MyCustomEntities TEAMBindingSource.DataSource = Teams1.TEAMS.OrderBy(Function(TEAMS) TEAMS.TEAMID) ------------------------------------- I get another "SystemBadImageFormatEception" An attempt was made to load a program with a incorrect format. (Exeption from HRESULT: 0x8007000B) What did I do wrong or what am I missing? Is the following EF connection string wrong? -------------------------------------- My existing EF connection string in the app config file is: <connectionStrings> <add name="MyCustomEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/MyCustomModel.csdl|res://*/MyCustomModel.ssdl|res://*/MyCustomModel.msl;provider=FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient;provider connection string='initial catalog="C:\Users\MyName\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\My FirebirdEF Experiment\bin\Debug\MyDatabase.FDB";data source=localhost;user id=SYSDBA;server type=1;password=masterkey'" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" /> </connectionStrings> Can I shorten it to the following? Using the |DataDirectory|. <connectionStrings> <add name="MyCustomEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/MyCustomModel.csdl|res://*/MyCustomModel.ssdl|res://*/MyCustomModel.msl;provider=FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient;provider connection string='initial catalog="|DataDirectory|\MyDatabase.FDB";data source=localhost;user id=SYSDBA;server type=1;password=masterkey'" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" /> </connectionStrings> ----------------------------------- Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
