Database Explorer in Visual Web Developer
-
I am having problems with Visual Web Developer express edition. The 'Database explorer' menu under View menu, does not work. When I click on it, nothing happens. How can I remedy this problem? I have installed SQL Server 2005 express edition as well. Thanks

I've never used the Express Editions, but in the other $$$ editions, you have to create a new Data Connection to a database in order for it to work.

2006, 2007How would I create a new Data Connection to a database. I am assuming if the Database Explorer is not working, I cannot create any connection. Would I specify anything in the web.config? Thanks

Like I said, I've never used the Express Editions of VS.NET. Under the Pro versions, it's on the Server Explorer tab.

This doesn't have anything to do with working with the Database Explorer. You might find something to show the Database Explorer (Server Explorer in the big versions) under the View menu. Once you have that window, you'll find the Data Connection object in it.
