OLEDB

You can look as MSDE (SQL Server Developer Edition). The 2008 version is
pretty robust. The setup can be scripted and very easy to install.

Hi. I am very new to database programming with VB.NET. I have two questions
really. Is there a way to use a database that is embedded with the
application so that it can access that database no matter where it is
launched from? The second is where a good reference to creating a simple
database using Access and VB.NET?

Thank you so much!

Of course, you'd probably want to use the Sql Provider, rather than OleDb
for that.
