Hello!
Visual Studio 2005 includes a copy of SQL Express which is a lightweight
desktop engine version of SQL Server 2005.
Now to my question what is MSDE(Desktop Engine) is that the same as SQL
Express ?

MSDE is obsolete (support ended in April); SQL Server Express is the
replacement. Note that SQL Server 2008 Express is now available.

MSDE was essentially a cut-down version of SQL Server 2000; SQL
Express fills roughly the same role for SQL Server 2005 & 2008 (though
somewhat expanded, since it does allow remote connections, which MSDE
did not).
There's also SQL Server CE, which is yet another thing (but also
something worth a look at if you need a lightweight local database for
a desktop application).

This is not entirely accurate. MSDE *did* allow remote connections. The
main limitation in MSDE was that it only worked well with a maximum of 5
remote connections; if you opened more connections then it purposely
degraded its performance to discourage people from using it in this way (and
encourage upgrading to a "full" Sql Server). Sql Express does not have this
limitation and can accept an unrestricted number of remote connections.

The other major limitation of MSDE was the size of database it would
cope with. While it looks like there's still a restriction, it's
bigger than it was before (4GB instead of 2GB).

MSDE does support remote connections. You can manage a remote MSDE
from "Enterprise manager" or "Management Console"
IIRC MSDE did support DTS and the express version does not. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

In the early days of .NET development, I could react to user's hesitancy to
download the Framework with reassurance that it would eventually be included
in a future service pack. I also pointed out that once the Framework was
installed, later .NET applications could be installed without another hefty
download. I knew that any pushback I'd get would be moot in a few months
when the Framework was integrated into Windows.

Ok I have been slowely - and ever so slowely teaching myself VB.net
Currently I have created an MDB file by code, and added fields to the MDB
file by code.
I like this solution because, ( im assuming ) if I create an EXE and I load
an MDB file, I can
see if certain fields are there, and if not add them.
Kinda like an Update that is imbeded into the EXE, so you dont always have
to create an Install shield.

Hello, all, I started out thinking my problems were elsewhere but as I
have worked through this I have isolated my problem, currently, as a
difference between MSDE and SQL Express 2005 (I'll just call it
Express for simplicity).
I have, to try to simplify things, put the exact same DB on two
systems, one running MSDE and one running Express. Both have 2 Ghz
processors (one Intel, one AMD), both have a decent amount of RAM

I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
