Maybe because Access has been declared obsolete as DB backend for
applications for a while
Could anyone advise on a suitable backend then?
My VB.NET app will generate "tasks" to perform, and perform them. If it
can't do them for some reason, it needs to store them, and retry later.
Each task will have an "attempts field", which will be incremented on
each attempt. There could be thousands of tasks at any one time.
I'd like to process these tasks in a seperate thread, which:
1) avoids reading the whole list of uncompleted tasks into memory at once.
2) doesn't involve installing separate products onto the system (but I
can include files in my installation). I assume .NET Framework 2.
Thanks,
Kevin

>>Hi,
Hope you can help - I can't see the wood for the trees any more.
I currently have a local MS Access file.
I'd like to do this in VB.NET:
connect to file (select * from table)
for each row in table
if TEST(row) then
remove row
else
increment a field
end if
end for
The success/failure of the TEST function is only partly dependent of
the row's contents (so we can't use the SQL UPDATE command). The MDB
file may contain thousands of rows (so, I'd like to avoid reading it
all into memory at once)
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Don't know what exactly the problem is, so this is a good place to start:

Further, language unrelated and ADO.Net related question fit best here:
