DataSet Problem

[NewGuy]

Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work

ds.Tables[0].Rows[0].ItemArray[TITLE] = m_sTitle;

Try this,

ds.Tables[0].Rows[0]["TITLE"] = m_sTitle;

I replaced your TITLE with "TITLE" because I assumed that was the actual
name of the column.

Hi NewGuy,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you're trying to modify a cell's value
using ds.Tables[0].Rows[0].ItemArray[TITLE] = m_sTitle. However, this
doesn't work. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me
know.

This doesn't work, because the ItemArray property returns another instance
of values of that row. So when you assign value to that array, actually
you're not modifying the DataRow object but another instance of object
array. So the changes cannot be seen from the DataSet. You can try to
following instead:

ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][TITLE] = m_sTitle;

HTH.

You could either set the values as suggested, or set the whole Array
together. Check out this page in MSDN
