No they're not
but why not?
I like the potential of using Common Db Objects and the Factories
There is flexibility on what db to use finally. Like now I'm testing locally using access and I just found out that I can't use that on live so I have to use sql server.
Then there is this possibility of connecting to multiple db of a different nature. Say there is an Old db that one needs to connect to and another new db.
So that's the promise it holds hence it's good. :D
I don't know how to connect to DB's in 2005. :(
:|
but it's so simple. a bit of google search here and there and msdn on the side.
I created a class to do the dirty stuff so now I only have one line to connect to db and fill my datatable.
can't wait to try sqlserver express later when I get home...
why do I have to work at this tmie?? :cry:
