Question : Win7/ VS 2010 / SQL 2008 Express OK for dev platform
I need to re-develop a VB6 app into something modern.
I haven't coded in years.
I installed the Visual Studio 2010 beta 2 on my Windows 7 VM, but had problems connecting to the SQL 2008 Express which comes with the VS 2010.
I installed Sql Server Management Studio 2008 but when I went to install it on Windows 7, it complained.
This leaves me wondering if I might be better developing on Visual Studio 2008, SQL express 2008 on XP.
In other words: am I too too bleeding edge for my own good, especially since I don't' have a good modern skill set.
Whatta u think?
Thanks,
Mike

Oh, I get it. It doesn't care for
(local)
. You must call your database by name, in this case, use
.\SQLExpress
. Worked for me!
