Hi Jan,

The message you are getting relates to code that would be in the Orders business object, created in chapter 8. In that chapter it talks about how to create business objects that can save and retrieve data. Chapter 8 doesn't give complete code for all the different business objects so the best place to look at how to set up the Orders business object is to look at the sample code you can download. The error you are getting is stating that the DataAdapter for the Orders does not have a select statement assigned to it so it can't then infer how to create a delete statement in the commandbuilder.

>The line is: DataAdapter.DeleteCommand = CommandBuilder.GetDeleteCommand()

>All the examples up to this point have worked, and since there are no compilation errors, I'm not sure what the problem is. No example code exists for Chapter 10 to compare.
