SQL Express Edition Network Deployment Error



Guys and Gals,

Have a problem... Here it goes...

The file ..... is on a network path that is not supported for database
files..
an attempt to attached an auto named database for a file failed.
A database with the same name exist or specified file cannot be opened.

What we did was we copied our entire vb.net program with an mssql express
edition database to another computer on a network
and then we shared the folder as a full access folder and then .. we copied
our entire vb.net program on another machine and then...
we changed the connection string to an unc path using \\vbnet\program etc..

The error above appeared.

What was wrong?

Does it mean we need to have another license of an sql server express
edition run on that machine?
Is there another way to deploy them and install only .net framework and copy
the mdf file?

Thanks,

Cypher Drive.
