Nowadays it's important to have good databases that can handle large amount of data. In my work, clients always need databases, and typically they require a more powerful solution than an MS Access database file, but without the complexity (or expense) of something like MS SQL Server, IBM DB2, or Oracle. Both the MySQL and PostGreSQL databases fit the bill, but since MySQL is really easy to use in a Windows server, I decided to use it for my work. Getting MySQL to work elegantly with ASP.NET is not that straightforward, so in this article I will show you how to access a MySQL database with a VB.NET Component in an ASP.NET file. |
