i have a form, on that form i have a username and password text field, also i have a login button.
theres a table in the database which has a username and password fields.
the question is, when the user enters a username and a password and presses LOGIN, how do i do a comparision against the table so if the information matches a record in the table the user is directed to form2.
the database is done in sqlserver2000, and its a windows application in vb.net.

Hi there,

If you really want to be helped, I suggest you listen to the answers you receive. This message is almost the same as this one: http://p2p.wrox.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15116

You received some hints and suggestions on how to proceed. Posting a new (but the same) message 3 times (!!!) in different forums is not going to help. Cross posting is not a good thing to do; your message will be read anyway, and having the same message in 3 forums tends to clutter things up.

Please follow the suggestions given in the other thread.

Cheers,

Imar
