Distributing Database Applications

I'm an Access developer, and I've been using VBA for some time. There are a
few things I can't do in VBA that I'd like to do, so I'm looking into
switching to VB.Net.

The problem is, I want to make sure I have all I need. I'm used to having
all the database connections and maintenance taken care of without my
knowledge.

If I write a database app in VB.Net 2003, what else do I need to make that
app distributable? With Access, I had to get the Access Developer
Extensions. If I have VS .Net 2003 and SQL Server Developer 2000 (they came
together), is that all I need?

Thanks for your help--if you know of any good resources for someone in my
spot, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks again!
Joe
