    How to use a sql server database on LAN network using VB 2008

    Hi, could anyone help me....

    I've already installed VB and sql server express 2008. I've created a database in the sql server and connected the database to VB project which works fine. My problem is... how to use this VB project on a LAN network. If I complete the project using the database which is on my hard drive, how Could I build this project and put it on the network, so as other users using the project to update the database.

    Pls guide or refer me to any site where I could continue working on the project.

    You specify where the database is located in your ConnectionStrin g.

    The connection string contains information about how to connect to your database. All you have to do is have the database accessible on the network (firewalls allowing your application to connect to it) and ensure that your connection string is correct.
