Remmber your Development Path will not be the same as your Cliients Path. VS does not Do it for you Automatically. The Error means it cant find the Database. If you have hardcoided your connection string, you shoud consider putting it in a Config File and read it from there. When you create a setup Project add the database to your Application and when you install the Application it will be in the Application Folder and make sure that the Connection string in your Config file points to the Application Folder not my Document....................
