I’ve just started working with Visual Studio and C#, and am trying to solve a small problem I have. I come from a Microsoft Access background, and have quite a bit of experience with database queries and forms.
However, I am currently trying to re-implement an access database with C#, ADO.net, and Windows Forms. Visual Studio makes it easy to create a form based on one table, but I have not yet found out how to make a form based on data from multiple tables.
Is there a way to do this through the Visual Studio interface? If not, how do I do it in code?
Any information will be appreciated, including links and tutorials, although I have already looked at a few of these and not understood them. I can’t work out how to convert from displaying data in ASP (which most tutorials seem to use) to displaying records in a list box, or sequentially on a screen.
Check out this Master/Detail tutorial from MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa984462(VS.71).aspx
Hopefully that will get you going in the right direction.
