Collecting database data ?

[serge calderara]

dear all,

I am building an application which is collecting data from a database and
display them in a windows form.

My idea is to collect those data in a form that, they can be read by my
windows application as well as a web browser.

is there a way to handle this data collection way available for both ?

thanks for reply

Re: Collecting database data ?

You can do this with some good planning from the start.

Make a class that stores the data and handles gathering the data and
processing of the data. Then compile this into its own dll (make the class
a class library project) Then you can reference this class from both the
web and windows. All the forms (web/win) should have to do is attach to the
data.

Hope this helps some.
Chris

Re: Collecting database data ?

Thanks for wyour reply,

But still one question, do I have to fomat those data in a particular form
or just having then in a dataset is enough?
I was thinking on exporting them to XML files but then formatting is needed
somhow ?

Serge
