--- Comment #7 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmx.net 2007-11-08 04:23:11 --- Mono's oledb is not sufficient. They haven't done much work on it. Basically oledb is a generic database engine which can load access databases, dbase and so on. libgda offers some support for this but it is not great and in case of access (which most apps need) I believe it only offers read support. Mono isn't working on oledb anymore they prefer that you use some sqlite/mysql/postgresql.
You should use it with .NET 1.1. BTW not much people got the plain .net framework working could you provide a small howto on appdb? Does it work for simple .NET apps?
