SQL needed to install before running .exe file

Asked By john savage 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/21/2011

I have a question regarding SQL server. I developed software using VB.net and SQL server 2005. The problem is when I tried to create .exe file, I cannot run it on my computer since SQL server is installed on my system. I want to know if I will run this .exe file on other computer, should I install SQL server first. If so, is it possible to run it on other computer without installing SQL server? I hope someone can reply to my query. Thanks.

SQL needed to install before running .exe file

hi
If a  software is built using a database like SQL,Oracle , and a front end like Java,.NET, Its front end is not needed after converting it to a .exe file and database is to be there to do table operations.

You are asking the question that whether you need to install SQL server 2005 to run your .exe file in .NET in  any computer.Yes,you need to install the database corresponded to your software since its the memory where the software operation is to be done.

I hope the information is useful and it will be helpful for your software

You need not to install SQL server / SQL client on client end.

You only need authentication ( for network  LAN ).

While using WAN you need SQL database authentication .
