Many of the walkthrough topics in this section use the CourseManager application (from the Entity Framework Quickstart) as a starting point. For these walkthroughs, we recommend that you use a copy of the CourseManager application, instead of editing the original CourseManager code. You can download the completed Course Manager as both a Visual Basic project and a C# project from the MSDN Code Gallery Web site. |
