Where is the OLE database?

Report · Sep 21, 2010

Hi, I am doing a tutorial with Dreamweaver 8 , developing an ASP.NET application.I got to the part where I am supposed to connect to a Database.So

as the tutorial says I clicked on Windows-Databases and on the plus sign but nothing happens, there is no Ole Database. I know I have an SQL server 2008 express database installed on my PC.Can I use that and how? Thanks

You'll need to create your data source in IIS first. Here's a how-to I found when i googled "creating a data source name in iis"

Once you create the data source Dreamweaver will be able to use it.
