The Database Isn't Working With The Setup Based Deployment Of The Application

 

I deployed my application to my newly installed xp pro laptop

The prerequisites are installed

Now  that I want to testdrive my database application I get this error:

An attempt to attach an auto-named database file c:/program files........................MyDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file can not be opened, or it is located on UNC share.

This is what I read in my app.config file;

<connectionStrings>

<add name="MasterDetail.My.MySettings.MyDBConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MyDB.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"

providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

</connectionStrings>

What could I be doing wrong? If there is need for additional information you have to tell me

Thanks, Richard
