I am writing an application using Visual Studio 2005 (VB.net) against an Oracle XE database. In the case of releasing software updates where I need to make database changes (modify stored procedures, perform DML, etc.) what is the best way to package this up as part of the installation/upgrade of the application? Are there any references out there regarding the best way to package up database modifications within an installation package.
Disclaimer...I have little experience with even packaging up a project for installation within VS as I still need to research this whole process.
Thanks.
