Re: Access Database Saving
Where are you storing the database file (.mdb or .accdb)? You might be seeing some kind of virtualisation. You should not store the database in the app folder. Store it in a folder in ProgramData or the user's local appdata folder.

Its stored as a local copy which Visual Studio decided the location itself. And its an .accdb - is it simply because it isn't a published version?

In my signature, there's a link "I swear I saved my data, where'd it run off to?" ... click, read, decide if it's your case... (hint, it probably is)

It's in the bin! So it is just a debug quirk.
Thanks <3
Re: Access Database Saving
It's not a quirk. It's by design... so that you don't muck up your design database with test junk or accidentally send your db into a bad state.
