Hiya
Thanks for the suggestion. I now have a Class that inherits the DataSet, but
how do I get the methods on the DataTable objects themselves? Sorry if it's
easy, I haven't done stuff like this before. Currently I have the
SelectToTable method on the DataSet, so it can be called like this:
Dim oDataSet As New MyDataSet
oDataSet.SelectToTable(filterExpression)
Whereas I would like the following:
Dim oDataSet As New MyDataSet
oDataSet.MyTable.SelectToTable(filterExpression)
So the function would return a table of the same type, just with records
that match the filterExpression. I know I could pass through a table or
table name to the DataSet method, but I would prefer it if possible on each
of the DataTables in the DataSet.
Thanks for your continued help!
Steve.

in a separate file, inherit from the class and extend it -- this will give
you the functionality without having the tool overwrite your source

news:ul**************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... Hi all
I have created a strong DataSet using Visual Studio. I have been in to
the
DataSet's vb file to have a look at the code and see if I can add things
to it. What I'm after is to create a new method on every DataTable in the
DataSet, this method will be called SelectToTable, as I have the need to
select rows in a current table into another table, and the Select method
only returns an array of data rows. However, any changes that I make are
overwritten the next time I edit and save the DataSet in the designer. Is
there a way to add custom functionality to the DataTables and not have
them overwritten the next time I change something in the designer?
Kind regards,
Steve
