I follow your suggestion but when I clck on Run Custom Tools absolutely nothing happens. Unless, the king has no clothes and I am the only one not seeing it <g>.
I am trying to understand the concept of strongly-typed dataset and how to use them in VS 2005. That's why I was hoping that there is a good (or bad <g>) book on that. Or some articles on the web.
Do you think it make sense for me (who is aspiring to be a good .net developer some day <g>) to learn the skill of creating strongly-typed datasets?
Thank you.
