Hi!

I'm looking for a help on how i can write code in VB.NET so that i can browse a shapefile from my computer and save it to SQL database.
I know there are ready-made tools like this https://www.sharpgis.net/file.axd?file=SqlSpatialTools_build3759.zip[^] that are capable to do this task BUT
I want to do manually by writing some code on Visual studio 2017 and Microsoft SQL server 2017

The application will have two buttons, one button to browse file from computer and another save button to save shapefile into database and an OpenfileDialog box.

Can someone show the way how to go ...??

Thanks.

What I have tried:

Private Sub BtnBrowse_Click(sender As System.Object, e As 
    System.EventArgs) Handles BtnBrowse.Click
    OpenFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "E:\"
    OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "shapefile files (*.shp)|*.|All files 
    (*.*)|*.*"
    OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
    txtFileName.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName

  End Sub

  Private Sub BtnSave_Click(sender As System.Object, e As 
   System.EventArgs) Handles BtnSave.Click
    Try
        'code to check if it is a shapefile



        'code to save shapefile in database 

    Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    End Try

    End Sub
