Hi, I installed Visual C++ Expres Beta 2 and want to "Add New Data Source" for Database but when creating connection there is possible to choose only SQL Server and MS Access. I would like to work with ODBC data source. I checked registry and under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VCExpress\8.0\DataProviders there is registered .NET Framework Data Provider for ODBC. Why am I not able to choose this component Is there any workaround, or must I wait for final release Many thanks.

For the express beta2 SKU's the only database3 providers supported are SQL Server and Access.
To use other database providers will mean purchasing a standard version or above when the product is released.
