Install or uninstall .NET Framework 2.0

I want to instal Sql Server express, problem is

On this link http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/ , they say
you must uninstall any previous versions of ... and the .NET Framework 2.0.
Yet here on step two in the instruction section in this link http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=220549b5-0b07-4448-8848-dcc397514b41&displaylang=en
they say I should install it

Where is the truth!

First, if you have a prerelease build of .Net Framework 2.0 installed on your machine you need to uninstall it. There is no way around this.

Second, in order to install SQL Server Express, you need to first install the released version of .Net Framework.

So yes, you need to uninstall and then install to install SQL Server Express. The key information is you're uninstalling prerelease builds and installing the final release build.

I hope this clears up the confusion.

Inserting records using the details view or programmatically

I'm a new user to vwd.

If I use a details view control on my page, I have noticed that the "New" link is not visible unless there is at least one record in the table. Is there any way of making it visible where there aren't any records?

My web pages are currently hosted at vwdhosting. I have uploaded my database with the record structure onto the web site and I am using a remote connection string to access it. I have had users updating data in another table on the remote database. If I add records to my new table locally and upload the database to the remote site, all the data that my users have been adding will be lost.

So, if I can't add my first record using a control on my web page when there are no records in the table, should I be doing it programmatically? If so, how?

Thanks,

Julie

Use the empty template. Add a button, that has a commandname of "New".

I usually use something like:

No records found, <asp:button ...>Add a new record</asp:button>

as the empty template.
