dataset primkey

Hello,

how do I remove the primary key on a datatable in a dataset (without
removing the data itself)?
Set the primary key to nothing? Or how?
Thanx

You should just be able to right click on the key, go to keys.. and click
remove.

I think he meant programmatically. Frank, did you try setting the PrimaryKey
property to Nothing?

Yes Jeff, this seems to work. I did not try it before, because I thought
that couldn't be it.
Thanks
