I actually dug this out from the vault...plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

That's why it's not correct to say LinQ for SQL entities/objects can replace the typed dataset in April 2007 unless you're doing 2-tier stuff. Pass the entity between layers and no change tracking details accompany it unless you concoct your own which is hopeless. IMHO. So KG gets to sit there with a big grin and I don't get to tell him he's using obsolete technology, which I'm sure you'll agree is a real shame. ;-)


I know that Mrs. Typed DataSet doesn't get involved in these discussions (probably wise of her)...so feel free to treat this like a game of Mad Libs....just leave the year and the initials and the latest technology as a variable, and then fill them in every few years. <s>
