How do I access SQL Server from Windows 8 apps?
ado.net, sql-server, windows-8
Solution
You can't access directly on sql databases.. Because Windows 8 Apps different from windows forms. But you can be used web services or azure, amazon services, storage files etc.
Problem
I realize that a local SQL Server instance is not accessible to my Windows 8 app. Instead, I have a SQL Server in Azure. In SQL Server Management Studio, I just change the querystring and interact with the Azure database like any other. How can I reference that database in my Windows 8 app?
