Save your Atta2005 mdf file in your vb.net project.

What about change your Connectionstring:

XML

<add name="AttachmentDBConnection.My.MySettings.DatabaseConnectionString" connectionstring="Server=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Atta2005.mdf;Database=Atta;Trusted_Connection=yes;User Instance=True">
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</add>

Hope it helps. Ask for improvements ;)
