Dave,

>1. web.config - the connection string was still pointing to the 2003 sample folder instead of the new 2005 folder.
>2. OrderEdit Web Form - when trying to add the BindingSourceMember to the testboxes, I keep getting an error message that says: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." . I get this as soon as I click on the elipses button. I am able to use the elipses to select the BindingSource and if I enter the field names mannually the web form works fine. That tells me (I would think) that my connection string in the web.config file is ok. Any ideas on this?

It is most likely a problem with the connection string...when you manually type the binding members no attempt is made to connect to the database at design time.

>Now that I can get the Northwind data to work, are there any special requirements for setting up a VFP DBC file. The DBC and tables I am getting my errors in are part of an accounting system called "SBT ProSeries". I don't know if you are familiar with that one but it uses a standard VFP DBC file and tables. The main difference is that the tables, in their native form, do not have a primary key setup. I added the primary key field and index when I started building this web app.

Adding the primary key and index is a great idea. Another thing you may need to try if you run into trouble is to use a typed DataSet.

Best Regards,
