Registering ASP.Net/AJAX 3rd Party Controls

Registering Teleric Rad Controls for ASP/AJAX .NET:

Error Message:
 
Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture. Make sure "AjaxControlToolkit.Properties.Resources.NET4.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "AjaxControlToolkit" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

Reason:
AjaxControlToolkit’s control load reference refers to the base System.Web.UI.Control method which is present as a part of the ASP.NET AJAX Libraries and those libraries are referenced only when the "ScriptManager" is referenced in the page.

Solution:
Add ScriptManager in the page and this error would be resolved...

MySQL vs Microst SQL Server

"If you're creating a web application using C# ASP .NET, you will more than likely be using one of the three top database engines MySQL, MS SQL (Microsoft SQL Server), or Oracle to store your online data. From the developer's view, all three databases are virtually the same. You use the same generic framework calls to connect, read, and write data. While it is more common to use Microsoft's MS SQL Server with a .NET application, a large number of web hosts offer the free MySQL database. Therefore, connecting to a MySQL database from C# ASP .NET is an important task and is actually quite easy to do" more
