hi, All
I am working on a CAD related project using VB.net and MSAccess.
It has a 'master.mdb' which populates a datagrid whenever a user opens a NEW
project.
what i want is that when a user modifes the datagrid the changes should NOT
be updated in the master.mdb
instead a new 'project.mdb' should be created. ie; each project should have
its own mdb file.

Now, i dont know which approach should i take ie; shall i create a copy of
master.mdb everytime a new project is created using simple file.copy method
and work on that copied mdb file , or create a new mdb file, tables, row
programmtically, copy Schemas and the data from master.mdb.

Any help will be appreciated

Irfan,

In my idea is copying the most easy method when you have no deployment
problems around that.

thanks Cor,

What deployment problems do you think this approach will involve. Probably,
i may not be aware now but it might come at a later stage?
