    modular programming???

    Here is what I am talking about...
    I have an app that extracts data from a customer database and imports it to
    database2

    The 2nd app extracts data from database2 and imports to database3

    The problem or question is I have several different instances of the first
    app and only 1 of the 2nd.
    Depending on the customer the first app will change .

    Can I "drop" the forms and modules in to the 2nd app depending on the
    customer?

      Yes you can build PlugIns for your app. It's very easy to dynamically load
      DLLs in VB.NET.

          Just a suggestion, but you may want to take a look at not using any compiled
          code at all. For tasks like that, T-SQL jobs are (generally) far simpler to
          write, maintain, and schedule, and run much faster.

              Gonzosea,

              What you are looking for is a datalayer. That you can create in a class (and
              dll) and that use with both applications.

              In the most simple format, you can open a component in VB.Net and use in
              version 2005 the DataTab and in version before that the oldedb or sql
              dataset wizard from the toolbox.

              I hope this helps,

              Cor
