vb.net 在运行时以编程方式创建 sql server 数据库

Create a sql server database programmatically at run time

提问by Coder92

I am creating a vb .net winform project that uses a sql server 2008 database. I have the project more or less finished but I want to tweak it a bit. One of the tweaks is as follows. I have created the database within sql server 2008 but I am wondering how do I go about programmatically creating the database within the vb .net project. I have searched the internet on this matter but nothing is clear enough for me. Do I create the database within the opening form or do I create it in a separate class and call it in the other forms I am using the database in? Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

我正在创建一个使用 sql server 2008 数据库的 vb .net winform 项目。我的项目或多或少已经完成，但我想稍微调整一下。其中一项调整如下。我已经在 sql server 2008 中创建了数据库，但我想知道如何在 vb .net 项目中以编程方式创建数据库。我已经在互联网上搜索过这个问题，但对我来说没有什么足够清楚。我是在打开的表单中创建数据库还是在单独的类中创建它并在我使用数据库的其他表单中调用它？对此事的任何帮助将不胜感激。

The following code will help you to create a database named my_db and a table within the database named as customer.

以下代码将帮助您创建一个名为 my_db 的数据库和一个名为 customer 的数据库中的表。
