I did look at the tutorial. So Dorin can claim his commission <g>.

But I will have to find a tutorial on creating a DAL using (I guess) strongly typed datasets, right? Is this what you are saying that strongly typed DataSet is ok for building DAL?>
>Oh yes ... I *always* recommend Typed DataSets. It's all I ever use. Just avoid the damn TableAdapters. Here's how to avoid them ... when you create your .xsd for your DataSet, you have a choice of viewing them in a "designer" that shows your tables visually, or you have the choice of simply looking at the xml for your DataSet. You can view in the designer, but never save while in the designer ... that's when VS generates the TableAdapters (not sure if there's an option you can set to avoid that ... I never looked). I make changes directly in the xml to avoid that.
