Default newbie: MSDE to Sql Server 2005 Express - 12-28-2005 , 10:52 PM






Hey

I'm developing a software that uses Sql Server as database. I work against
an MSDE database on my computer... But the live system that runs this
software has the full version of Sql Server 2000...

I've had some computer troubles a few days ago and to fix it I decided to
reinstall everything again.. I've got backup of the source code :-)

But Now I see that MSDE isn't available any longer, now it's Sql Server 2005
Express... Sql Server 2005 Express requires .NET 2.0, but my software code
is .NET 1.1 (Visual Studio 2003).

The live server has version 1.1 of .NET. Will it create trouble (both 1.1
and 2.0 of .NET on my computer, and live Server require .NET written using
1.1 of .NET) for me if I use Sql Server 2005 Express on my computer together
with Visual Studio 2003?

Jeff

No, .Net Framework 1.1 and 2.0 will happily coexist on your system.
