A database management system typically deals with storing, modifying, and extracting information from a database. It can also add, edit and delete records from the database. However, a DBMS can be very difficult to handle by ordinary people or business men who have no technological backgrounds. Fortunately, we can create user friendly database applications to handle the aforementioned jobs with the DBMS running in the background. One of the best programs that can create such database application is none other than Visual Basic 2010.
Visual Basic 2010 uses ADO.NET to handle databases. ADO.NET is Microsoft’s latest database technology which can works with many other advanced database management system such as Microsoft SQL server.
