databases Books

[ss002d6252]

Can anyone suggest a good guide to vb.net databases using access ?, almost every book I have seen use SQL database.

Even a good website would do, I find that decent guides to database access for beginners are difficult to find.

thanks

I'm sure all the SQL server purists are gonna shoot me down for this one, but using access is not a million miles apart from using SQL server. In terms of connection you just need an oledbconnection rather than the SQLConnection and a modified connection string. The SQL is simplified because i don't think you can use T-SQL. Here's link to a site that has some good info......

Also if you do a search for TechGnome on these forums it will lead you to a guy who has some tutorials in his sig.
