I want to learn a little about database software.

I have a nice example that uses System.Data.OleDb.

I'd like to study it and extend it into something I can use.

It's a vs2003 solution.

My question is: I'm now running vs2005, is OleDb a good way to go or is
there a newer and better way then using it?



Thanks
 
Allen,

Use the special provider from a DataBase

I know that those are for SQL (SQLclient), Oracle and MySQL and maybe more.

If those are not there by instance for Access use OleDB.

The difference are not that much that you would miss something learn OleDB.
AFAIK are that in as major point only the parameters.

I hope this helps,

Cor
