Stability Problems

[jimmy]

I am currently developing applications using VB.NET express edition and
decided to give sql server expresss a go because i thought it would be
easier to work with than the MySQL that i usually use. I used the
designer to create all my conections and datasets etc. I was really
beginning to like this and was considering swapping to sql server
completely. I soon started epxeriencing crashes when editing the
dataset and these werent just the odd crash these were everytime i
opened or closed it.

Sometimes i would be lucky and would be able to save the changes and
about 50% of the time it would just crash completely. I have never had
any other problems like this before until i started using sql server
with vb.net. Has anyone else had any similar problems?

I assume you mean that your VB.NET application is crashing. If so, you
probably have an unhandled exception being generated. Debugging the
application in Visual Studio should help you find the location of the
exception.
