OK so let the games begin. Start with a new computer on my desk. HP Compaq with an AMD Athlon X2 and 4gbt of RAM. Since I work for the government this machines must meet certin requirements. One of the requirements is that the machine must be running Windows XP Professional and it is connected to the domain. Since I am an Administrator (IT GOD!!!) I have full rights and permissions to the desktop and the network.
I start with a standard configuration of Windows XP Professional. I am also running Microsoft Office 2000 Professional with Access 2000 and Outlook 2003. I download and install Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 but do not expect to use SQL SERVER as most of my database work needs to be in Access 2000 MDB files.
A note: I do not have IIS Services installed this machine as it is not going to be a web server. My web server is a dedicated server in my computer room. I will be doing all the development work on my desktop development system and then transfering the files to the network IIS Server.
My goal is to develop web pages that are database related. What I mean is most of my needs for web pages in ASP.NET is access to Microsoft Access 2000 database tables. I need not only to display information but also to edit, add, delete, and update table data.
