Need Advice - ado.net 1.x ----> 2.0

[Rachana]

Hi,
I am having vb.net 1.0. & presently trying dummy codes - (data
adapter, data set etc.). Within a couple of weeks , I have to go for
real projects. At present all my projects are window based( not Web).
I have just read about ado.net.2.0 and enhanced features. Are those
features mainly important to web users or for all? should I stick with
1.0 or go with 2.0
Because again I will have to spent time on basic data access features.
But Since, I am very new and in learning stage, perhaps going with
latest one will be more appropriate. I am confused? Please, advice.

Thanks in advance
Rachana

Rachana,

Beside the paramater add is there in my opinion nothing changed.

However 2.0 gives you a lot of extras in to generate classes for loading
tables.

It is/was not a greath success and as long as you do not go to Linq you can
stay without that parameter addwithvalue use everything in my idea in 2.0
the same as you did it in 1.1
