    There is a free management tool - available from MS...

    Here's the link:

    Third image down is about Management Studio - great utility for building and managing the server and database.

    There are also many code examples available at the MS site - RhinoBull suggested a link recently - search for his name and "code examples" and see what comes up...

    Re: SQL database questions

    OK, so now that I'm going to use SQL express, I have created the database from within the VB Express software which has added the database to my application with these 2 files: myTest.mdf & myTestDataSet.xsd.

    How can I access this dataset directly? It should be something like this, but I know this isn't right and it doesn't work:

    intRowCount = myTestDataSet.Tables(0).Rows.Count

    Thanks.

    Greg
