Micheal,

I have .Net framework 3.5 sp 1 loaded and I followed your Linq to Sql tutorial after installing the linqprep program, but found when trying to connect to Sql 2000 using the Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient)' dataprovider it gives me an error message.

Could not load file or asembly" Microsoft SqlServer.Managment.Sdk.Sfc, version 10.0.0.0, culture =neutral, public key token = ...................The system cannot find the specified file.

Why would it can't find the specified file when all was set up?

If I use the sqlOledb data provider  the tables are displayed okay but the object designer refuses to let me drop the table into it ....unsupported data provider.

Is this due to a VisualStudioWebDesigner2008 and Sql 2000 compatability? Is it a compatability issue with the sp1 version of .Net 3.5?

Any ideas on what I can do to complete your tutorial? So I can use this methodology for development work? 

Great tutorials by the way.

Regards

Paul

Linq to SQL is SQL 2000 compatible. I have seen this error and to fix it we had to install some .dll's from sql server 2008... yeah I know.

I think VS 2008 was suppose to install the libraries. I think the problem was we did not install all the options from VS 2008 when we installed it. The fact we fixed it from SQL 2008 was just because we were in a hurry to fix the problem.
