Using DAL in Desktop Application 

Hi There

Don't know if this is old territory, but I would like to provide a desktop interface to a dotnetnuke application. Has anyone tried using the DAL in a windows application and come across the gotchas already? Interested to hear.

Colm

Depending on your needs, you might look at iWeb!

The reason you may want to look at http://iweb.adefwebserver.com/ rather than connecting directly to the database from your desktop app is that the DotNetNuke databse changes frequently. When you upgrade you desktop app may break. IWeb only uses the official API and has never had a broken method in over 2 years.
