I've been using the dataset designer in Visual Studio to create typed
datasets for my application by dragging over tables from the Server Explorer
and dropping them into the designer. The problem is, when I modify these
tables in SQL Server (typically adding fields and what not), there doesnt
seem to be an easy way to update the typed dataset. If I delete the
previous table definition and drop a new one on, all of the relationships
are broken. Is there an easy way to update the definitions in the dataset
designer that I'm missing? I know I can make the modifications directly to
the element objects, etc. but I was hoping for a more automated approach.
In an ideal world, my table structures would be perfectly planned out so
that I wouldnt be making such changes as I code them...but I've never lived
in that world :-)
Thanks

Running again the DataAdapter Configuration Wizard and then Generate DataSet
Wizard should resolve this problem.
Anyway, before altering the fields in the database, it's better to run the
DataAdapter Configuration Wizard and eliminate(from the Select command) the
fields you intend to alter. After you modified the structure of the table
run gain the DataAdapter Configuration Wizard(to include the new fields) and
then
Generate DataSet Wizard to update the typed DataSet class.

Thanks for the reply. Though I hadnt used the Wizards to generate the data
set or adapters...I'd only used the data set designer and drag-n-dropped the
SQL tables onto the designer from the Server Explorer, so maybe I'm stuck
with updating the SQL tables and performing the same updates in the designer
:-( I'm not a big fan of the Wizards, they always seem so limited in their
applicability.

Doing this you implicitly used the DataAdapter Configuartion Wizard.
You can modify your dataadapters commands running again this
wizard(right-click the dataadapter object in the component-tray and select
the "DataAdapte r Configuration.. .").
Without these two wizards my work would slow down about 20 times. Try them.

CodeSmith has templates that can query a table and generate typed datasets,
stored procs and anything else you can think of. http://www.ericjsmith.net/codesmith/

Hi all,
This post is sort of tangentially related to my earlier posts on
configuration files for DLLs.
Does anyone know how to create typed DataSets using VS2005's new DataSet
designer, but with the ability to configure the connection string via a
config file? The designer seems to hard-code the connection string into the
dataset itself, which just can't be right.
