C# 2003 vs VB.NET 2003

[Joe Obergfell]

Which is generally better for database queries? I am having to make a
program which will be used to enter vast amount of data for a Great
Planes database. I just need to know if C# or VB.NET interacts better
with this application.

Currently We have Great Planes 7.5 modified to our needs, if that would
help.

It does not matter since both rely on the framework to do all this. The
difference between the languages is just syntax. The difference in
capabilities is almost non existent, but the difference do not have anything
to do with interacting with databases.

It doesn't sound like you are the right person to be asking about or making
decisions like this. It sounds like you have no knowledge of the framework
or how programming using the .NET framework works.

Since GreatPlains uses VBA, you could write your inserts using VBA in
GreatPlains. That way you are still using the great plains interface but
doing some custom stuff on it. Inserting stuff into a GreatPlains Database
could be messy. Have you seen the tables it uses? Good luck trying to
figure out where the data is.

Your best bet is to call and talk to someone who is certified in
GreatPlains. They could give you more information.

The person that is in the cubical next to mine, I will be discussing
with more about Great Plains, since he is, I believe, Certified, or at
least the most knowledgeable in my office here.

I am starting to get the feel of the tables that it uses, and it will
take a few days ( since there are many tables). I should be able to
make a final decision soon. Thanks for responding.
