Hi ,

 

I have a program already working on LAMP architecture. Now since the business logic is in PostgreSQL. We were interested  to build the front end on VB.net. Would like to know the readiness of PostgreSQL working with VB.net . Would appreciate If anyone can suggest any drivers, website  and essential reading before I go for coding.

Npgsql is now sufficiently stable for .NET 1.1 and 2.0 (I've personally used it with VB.NET and C#.NET.)
I love it, it's a great interface and will be powering a couple of major projects I've got coming up over the next couple of years.

Of course there are ODBC drivers too, but I'd advise to go with the a native .NET class - and Npgsql should do you nicely!
The developers of Npgsql hang out on pgsql-interfaces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so could be worth dropping a question on there.
