Migrate from .VB to .VS for database?

[John Howard]

I have written a VB.Net application using MSAccess, but find MSAccess very
limiting and am considering changing to SQL Server. I understand that SQL
Server is included in VisualStudio. If I make this change, can I purchase
one copy of VisualStudio and one copy of Visual Basic for my other two
programmers and have database facilities for all three of us?

TIA

John

Hi,

The only version of SQL Server included with visual studio is the
MSDE. It is a free download. Here is a link to find out more.

Actually, the VS "Special Edition" now comes with the SQL Server 2000
Developer Edition. (this version retails for $50).
