    Unhappy Database Compatability?

    hi guys,

    i wanted to ask a very silly question.

    are .NET technologies compatible with any other database other than MS SQL?




    with best regards

    Yes. Just like ADO was in VB6.

    Woka
    My .NET Tutorials:
    • Silverlight Enabled WebPart in WSS

    My VB.NET Code Examples:
    • Create IIS Virtual Directory • Validate Login Against Active Directory • Automatically retrieve Identity field value from inserted DataRow using SQL Server and ADO.NET

    My ASP.NET Code Examples:
    • Login To Website (Forms Authentication) • Login To Website (Custom Authentication)

    My VB6 Code Projects:
    • Multithreading In VB6 • Custom Tooltips • Multi Language Support • Item Selector Control • Annimated Systray Icon • Simple Effective Graph Control • Download From Web • LiveUpdate, download application updates from the web automatically • Systray Notification Messages • Skin A Form • API Timer • Badger Messenger, an MSN clone that uses the MSN Network • Wokawidgets VB6 Component Suite

    It's more a matter of database providers. As long as a provider exists, you can connect to any database.
