Do you know if the connection is using anything in particular to connect ADO.net or anything like that? Or is this a straight connection to the server (if that's at all possible).

Any ideas?

// Some code
Int32 getDouble = 6;
DoubleIt(ref getDouble);
// Now you have getDouble with value 12

public void DoubleIt(ref Int32 nevVal)
{
nevVal = nevVal * 2; 
}

public class A
{
    public A(){}
    private Int32 _subInt;

    public Int32 unit
    {
        get
        {
            return _subInt * 2;  // Yust for fun i double it
        }
        set
        {
            subInt = value;
        }
    }
}

//to acses it
A a = new A();
a.unit = 4; // Asign 4 to a property
MessageBox.Show(a.unit.ToString()); // shows a messagebox with a 8 as it was multiplied by 2 when we get from unit property

Did you write your windows app to require the DB to be in the same folder as the exe ?

If they share the same DB, that must mean that the windows app is designed to run on the server ?
