OrdersByCustomersV3 Programs produce errors that cannot be corrected. The chapter has a wealth of information but always refers to these programs. I would like the corrected versions. Note: 4 downloads on 4 different systems produce the same results. All systems are running SQLEXPRESS. All the other programs work (through Chapter 3)
There is updated replacement code available from a temporary FTP site. Send me mail (Roger_Jennings@compuserve.com) and I'll provide the FTP URL, username and password. I'll post a message when the updated code is available from the WROX downloads page. See the message dated 2/7/2006.
I had the same problem with the code for the examples in Chapter 4 using SQLEXPRESS. This is how I solved it:
1. Open the file
2. Since the code examples uses localhost ConnectionString you have to change it to connect to SQLEXPRESS. Open app.config and change the connectionstring from: connectionString="Server=localhost;Integr...
to: connectionString="Server=[computername]\SQLEXPRESS;Integr...
3. Debug (Press F5)
IMPORTANT: You must do it in this exact order otherwise the code example get corrupt and don´t work..
