Hey

I have created a phone directory using C# and SQL (.mdf file). My program is running well on my laptop without any errors.
Now, I'd like to run the same program on a different computer. How can I achieve this? How am I supposed to created a setup for this?
I'll have to take care of the connection string right?

[I'm using VS 2012]
Thanks in advance.

There are two options:
1. Change the connection string.
2. Use the inbuild database of the .NET in that case you need not change the connection string it will take the location of the server as the current application location.
