.NET Forum / Languages / C# / October 2007Easy question about DataTable
Hello! Can one DataTable be considered in the same way as a table in the database. //Tony > Hello! > > Can one DataTable be considered in the same way as a table in the database. Define 'considered'?  SignatureAnthony Jones - MVP ASP/ASP.NET Hello! I mean interpret. A database table has columns rows and maybe constraints. A DataTable has some columns and probably some rows. It might also have some constraints. In this sense they are quite similar containing more or less the same kind of objects(column,rows..) I'm I right? //Tony > > Hello! > > > > Can one DataTable be considered in the same way as a table in the > database. > > Define 'considered'? Hi, SignatureIgnacio Machin http://www.laceupsolutions.com Mobile & warehouse Solutions. > Hello! > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > I'm I right? You are right. As a matter of fact that is the idea in teh first place. Now note that it's "similar" but not exactly the same. A DataTable, if the SQL used to populate it returns all rows and columns, can be "considered" an in-memory representation of the database table it's rows came from. But, I'm not sure what this accomplishes for you. -- Peter Recursion: see Recursion site: http://www.eggheadcafe.com unBlog: http://petesbloggerama.blogspot.com BlogMetaFinder: http://www.blogmetafinder.com > Hello! > > Can one DataTable be considered in the same way as a table in the database. > > //Tony >A DataTable, if the SQL used to populate it returns all rows and columns, >can > be "considered" an in-memory representation of the database table it's > rows > came from. But, I'm not sure what this accomplishes for you. You can bind a DataTable to a control that was derived from a dataset/contains a dataset .You can't bind a SQL Table to a control.
