About Stephen Jackson Expertise I can help with questions regarding VB.NET syntax and object references, with data interfaces and with the design and creation of robust, data aware object classes. I can also be very helpful with creating distributable applications and provide tricks and tips on .msi creation. I also have extensive experience in designing SQL Server Databases and interfacing them with VB.NET. I try to avoid web specific questions, as that is an area of expertise all its own.
Experience
Experience in the Area: I have been a programmer in Visual Basic since version 1.0 and have worked with VB.NET (which is infinitely more powerful than previous versions) since its initial release and SQL Server, both as a corporate IT professional and professional consultant. I first wrote Basic in 1976 on a TRS 80 and have worked in Visual Basic 1.0 and every subsequent release of Microsoft Visual Basic. I worked for over 7 years as a Senior Level Consultant in the area and currently hold a Project Manager position in IT.
Education and Credentials: MBA in Econometrics, 1983, University of Memphis.
BBA in Financial Management, 1982, Fogelman College of Business and Economics, University of Memphis. Microsoft Certified Professional
Areas of Special Expertise:
My specialty is the design of Object Oriented Solutions with robust, data aware object classes. I generally avoid the classic ‘Three Tier’ model as I find it redundant and cumbersome to maintain. I also specialize in the creation of ‘User Friendly’ User Interfaces which help lessen the need for user training and help prevent user error. I work best with Windows Forms based applications, and while I do work in C# as well, I prefer to limit my questions here to Windows Forms based applications created in Visual Basic.NET and SQL Server. I wil also address questions relating to the distribution and installation of Windows Forms based applications created in VB.NET.

Question i don't how to create three tiers .
front end is vb.net
back end is sqlserver
Answer Arun,
I need to explain why I cannot simply answer this question. A Three Tiered application is divided into three 'tiers', represented by the User Interface Objects, the Business Layer Objects and the Data Objects. It is an approach. You will need to do some reading on the subject and review some examples.
I do not know more to tell you than this ... and an application can also have 'n' tiers, more than 3. Be careful that when you do this, you know why, unless this is some kind of homework thing ... and even then, make sure you know why. If there is not a good reason for such a structure then it has no point!
