Adding SLX data connection to VB 2005 Express Project
Posted: 20 Nov 06 9:57 AM

fiogf49gjkf0d The database explorer only allows for connections to MS SQL and Access and does not allow me to add additional data connectors. Does this mean I'll have to do a manual ADO connection? I'm guessing yes but I want to be sure. I just started and I'm still learning the UI. |

fiogf49gjkf0d I'll answer my own question so anyone else who tries this will know.
The VB.NET Express edition is pretty firm about only allowing SQL and Access data connections, at least with wizards. You may be able to manually code the connection string but I didn't have success with that either but I don't know if that was my weak coding skills or the limitation of the Express edition. |

fiogf49gjkf0d Hi Marc,
it is not a limitation of the Express Edition.
First you have to decide in which way you would like to access to SalesLogix: OLEDB with the SalesLogix OLEDB provider or native SQL. Depending on that decision you have to import the namespaces
Imports System.Data.Sql or
Imports System.Data.OleDb
With these namespace you have the fundamental access to SalesLogix
Regards,
Thomas
If you need further help I can psot or send you some VB.net code. |
