DataSets (C#)

C
Hi,

I am using DataSets to populate some controls on my ASPX.

I retrieve some values using the Index in my DataSets.

For example dsTest.Tables[0].Rows[0].ItemArray[0] etc etc

How can I retrieve the value using the Column name /alias used in my SQL
rather than my Index.

Thanks,
Clive.

Just replace the index with the column name (i.e. ...Rows["SomeCol"]...).

Use:
dsTest.Tables[0].Rows[0]["columnname"]
or
dsTest.Tables[0].Rows[0].Item["columnname"]

Hope this helps,
