Dear collegeaus,

I would like to learn Visual Basic.NET and working with DATABASES. My
intention is making some Windows programs using Database &  Internet
programs using Databaseses.(SQL)

I'm a 3GL programmer.... Which and What book do you advice for start
learning these stuffs?

I have downloaded from Microsoft  site:
- Visual Basic Express Edition
- Ms SQL 2005 Express Edition
- Visual Web Development Express Edition

I already do self study since 2 months I'm a little bit familair with
Visaul basic syntaxes...
I can do simple windows forms, but I have some problems connection to
SQL database...

Intention :
- Making windows programs-working with DATABASE (e.g. creating
Customer, Sales Order, Purchase order) applications

- Making INTERNET programs-working with DATABASE (e.g. creating
Customer, Sales Order, Purchase order) applications based in internet
browser.

Could you please advice a good book or books - I need max. Intermediate
level to start ?

btw. is this the correct group for posting questions, if I have
questions about the connection to databases via Windows forms or
Internet applications????

best regards,

Mesut
