ADO.NET的介绍

ADO.NET的介绍 ADO.NET是一种用于和数据源进行交互的面向对象类库。一般,数据源为数据库，但它同样可以是文本文件、Excel表格或者XML文件。你可能知道有许多不同类型的数据库可以为ADO.NET使用。如：Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, Oracle, Borland Interbase和IBM DB2等。 MSDE包含了指导如何安装ADO.NET的技术文档。然而，为了方便，下面介绍下如何安装MSDE： MSDE 2000是SQL Server的缩略版。因此，这里面所有的内容和代码都是和SQL Sever有关系的。这是对ADO.NET的特别说明。但MSDE并不是ADO.NET的一部分，而它却是用到了ADO.NET的数据源中的一个。如果需要MSDE 2000的帮助，可以在Microsoft站点找到如下合适的技术支持的相关信息： [来源：http://www.doc163.com]

外文原文（复印件） Introduction to ADO.NET ADO.NET is an object-oriented set of libraries that allows you to interact with data sources. Commonly, the data source is a data base, but it could also be a text file, an Excel spread sheet, or an XML file. For the purposes of this tutorial, we will look at ADO.NET as a way to interact with a data base. As you are probably aware, there are many different types of data bases available. For example, there is Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, Oracle, Borland Interbase, and IBM DB2, just to name a few. To further refine the scope of this tutorial, all of the examples will use SQL Server. MSDE contains documentation on how to perform an installation. However, for your convenience, here are quick instructions on how to install MSDE: MSDE 2000 is a scaled down version of SQL Server. Therefore, everything you learn in this tutorial and all code will work with SQL Server. The examples will use the Northwind database. This is a tutorial is specifically for ADO.NET. MSDE is not part of ADO.NET, but it is one of the many data sources you can interact with by using ADO.NET If you need help with MSDE 2000, I refer you to the Microsoft Web site, where you can find pertinent information on licensing and technical assistance:
