Hi:<br />
<br />
We're creating web applications using Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Basic.<br />
<br />
We saw in the list of data sources offered by VS 2010: EntityDataSource, ObjectDataSource, and LinqDataSource beside AccessDataSource (used with Access db) and SqlDataSource (used with SQL server db)<br />
<br />
Would you help to explain for what applications these datasources are used and examples of how to use them?<br />
<br />
Thanks a lot,<br />

Microsoft Visual C++ (often abbreviated as MSVC or VC++) is an integrated development environment (IDE) product from Microsoft for the C, C++, and C++/CLI programming languages. It features tools for developing and debugging C++ code, especially code written for the Microsoft Windows API, the DirectX API, and the Microsoft .NET Framework. Many applications require redistributable Visual C++ packages to function correctly and are often installed independently of applications, allowing multiple applications to make use of the package while only having to install it once
