Hi i have just joined so sorry for begin late :P
Main concept : using the visual studio data environment to the fullest. Assumptions : [list=1][*]you are able to connect to the database (sql,orcale or access)[*]you are able to see the tables in server explorer[/list]solution elaborated : the visual studio 2005 environment has a wide range of features to make a good programmer very lazy :p. I will state these features and how to used them which will lead to the answer that you want to know. 1. The data environment in the menu data-> show datasource. When you see the datasource pane you will notice three icons in the top. Add datasource,edit datasource and refresh. In that click the add datasource. Then when you see the dialog. Follow the dialog and add the data source. And remember not to copy the database file in to the current directory. The application data is malformed. I think this is were you went wrong in your previous tries. 2.use the drag drop. When you completed the data source that is created in the data source pane then drag the table from the data source pane and then drop it in an empty form with no menu for safety reasons .. Hehe.... 3. Run the program press f5 and see what happens if you have followed what i have said it should probably work. :cool: i think that will give a solution to your problem if you have any doubt thread please. :cool:

Thanks for replying but i have made it on my own. I use data provider factories for designing my software. It allows you to connect to any database server and allows you do many task. Although it is still in development I could send you a demo version. I have written around 2000 lines and still many more need to be written. I have redesigned the whole software twice. If you want a copy of my software mail me at deepakk87 @ gmail . com
