Day 3 Blog:

- using the protected keyword will give intellisense to user controls
- sqlclient is for SQL server and is faster than OLEDB
- the datareader control is read-only and much faster than the dataAdapter which is read/write
- dataAdapter allows you to preview the data to be pulled back
- remember to call the Fill() method to get the databack!
- datagrid control has a lot of preformatted styles ala Excel]
- datagrid columns can be setup at design or runtime
- datagrid can be used for displaying data and editing too
- basic authentication is firewall friendly, basic integrated windows authentication isn't
- mixed mode authentication to SQL is not recommend since the username and password is sent as clear text over the wire
-
