Problem solved, shame on me .

I've skipped the not so unimportant point 6 on pg 81:
"CHoose the Customers table"

So I've left the selection at the 1st table on top, and it seems that it was empty.

Now the Advanced box isn't greyed out anymore, and everything works smoothly.

Sorry for the disturbance.

Dear Ken,
at first thanks for your great book, it really eases my way into the last release of the .Net World.

My problem:
-) I downloaded the Sample Databases from MS, no problem there.
-) I attach the DB-File northwind.mdf
-) I draw a SQL Data Source into the form
-) But when I click on the advanced button, both options are greyed out.


Do I have to enable wrte access to the database somehow?

The test query works fine, but I can just select, not do any changes to the table.

TIA, Martin
