I'm trying to figure out how to make it to where I connect to a database I've created on the harddrive. I don't wanna code through Access and prefer Visual Studio. The database is just something I've created on my harddrive. It's connected to a server using an ODBC connection. It's just an Access database by itself. I know I probably can't use an ADO Connection. I just need to somehow set my Visual Studio project up to where the datasource for my project will always be the Access database I created. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.
