Hi guys, I'm about to create my first ASP.net project and was hoping for a little guidance. What we want to do is create a job status app. We will have a client winform program (written in C#) that updates a SQL database on the website when a barcode is scanned. Then people will log into the website and view the updated db through a gridview. Can I update the server db by sending an SQL update commands from the client using a connection something like this: Also, can I do this with a basic hosting account or will I need to add an SQL Server add on? Sorry if these are newbie questions! I appreciate any feedback.
If you mean a SQL Express DB on your DASP site, no. There are ways to do this and adding a SQL Server to your site will be the best.
