newbie: Which version of VB.net

G

Guest

I have recently installed VB.net 2003 standard edition. I am trying to
create a db project connecting to a SQL 2000 db. I receive a message stating
that my version of .net will only connect to msde and access. Which version
will allow me to connect to sql 2000? Thanks for your help.

That error means that the IDE's wizards can only create connections to
MSDE and Access. You can still write code that can access SQL2000, you
just have to write the code yourself, without any of the IDE's wizards.

In answer to your question, the Professional version or higher is
needed to use the IDE's wizards to connect to SQL2000
