Network database

Hi

I use VB.NET 2005 Express Edition, and I have to develop an application which will run on two machines, but which will access one same database.

Can anyone please help me out with this, with info on
- The physical setup / network setup
- The database management system itself (which to use)
- How Visual Basic treats this

Thanks a lot

i just got some few tips here

first make sure your database is shared.
make sure that your computers are properly interconnected. you can have any layout that you want as long as it is interconnected as a network
use connection string and ado to connect to your database
refer to http://www.connectionstrings.com for reference on the syntax of a connection string
