Well, I went back to work and installed Microsofts Data Application Block v2.0 and configured the Data Access Quick Start Examples to hook up with Northwinds. All went well. Then I started a new project with the sample code but don't have the savy to put the sample code into a new form. I tries several times, and have the references set up correctly.
So if any power users could mix Tony's sample code into my raw code here~ I'll owe you one.
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data;
namespace GuidDBExampleCSharp
{
///
/// Summary description for Form1.
///
public class frmBuilderTest : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
///
/// Required designer variable.
///
///
private System.ComponentModel.Container components = null;
public frmBuilderTest()
{
//
// Required for Windows Form Designer support
//
InitializeComponent();
//
// TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call
//
}
///
/// Clean up any resources being used.
///
protected override void Dispose( bool disposing )
{
if( disposing )
{
if (components != null)
{
components.Dispose();
}
}
base.Dispose( disposing );
}
#region Windows Form Designer generated code
///

/// the contents of this method with the code editor.

private void InitializeComponent()
{
this.components = new System.ComponentModel.Container();
this.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(300,300);
this.Text = "Form1";
}
#endregion

static void Main()
{
Application.Run(new frmBuilderTest());
}
}
}
