To minimize the time and expense of configuring a physical computer for this training kit, its recommended, but not required, that you use a virtualized environment, which will allow you to work in a sandboxed environment. This will let you make changes without worrying about your day-to-day environment. Virtualization software is available from Microsoft (Virtual PC, Virtual Server, and Hyper-V) and other suppliers such as VMware (VMware Workstation) and Oracle (VirtualBox).

  • 2.0 GB of RAM (more is recommended)

  • 80 GB of available hard disk space

  • DVD-ROM drive

  • Internet connectivity

Software Requirements

The following software is required to complete the practice exercises:

  • Windows 7. You can download an Evaluation Edition of Windows 7 at the Microsoft Download Center at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/cc442495.

    Note

    SQL SERVER INSTALLATION

    If you are using a 64-bit OS, you should install 64-bit SQL Server before installing Visual Studio 2010. Visual Studio 2010 includes, and attempts to install, the 32-bit SQL Server 2008 Express Edition.

    If you install the 64-bit versions of SQL Server first, the Visual Studio 2010 installer will see that SQL Server Express Edition is already installed and will skip over installing the 32-bit SQL Server 2008 Express Edition.

  • Visual Studio 2010. You can download an evaluation edition from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/default. Although the labs and code samples were generated using Visual Studio 2010 Premium Edition, you can use the Express Edition of Visual Studio for many of the labs, which is available from http://www.microsoft.com/express.

Code Samples

The code samples are provided in Visual C# and Visual Basic. You will find a folder for each chapter that contains CS (C#) and VB (Visual Basic) code. In these folders, you will find the sample code solution and a folder for each lesson that contains the practice code. The Practice Code folder contains Begin and Completed folders, so you can choose to start at the beginning and work through the practice or you can run the completed solution.
