Hi!

Don't know if this question has been asked before, but here it goes.
Same basics first, Language: C#, VS.NET 2003

I'm developing a Configuration Wizard that inherets from
"System.ComponentModel.Design.ComponentDesigner" that configures my own
DataAdapter class, by some well designed forms, that inherets from the
Component class, much like the SqlDataAdapter. The Designer has the same
Verbs as the SqlDataAdapter such as "Configure DataAdapter.." and so on.
This works fine. I can now create/configure my Connection, select the
database name and so on. Now I have come to a point where I'm starting to
design the phase of creating Sql Queries (based on the database table colums,
Select, Delete, Insert and Update commands) and also to generate typed
DataSets for selected tables. Since this is a quite big task to accomplish,
I'm digging around in the assemblies that VS.NET are using, trying to find a
way to re-use some on the logic. To my disappointment nothing seems to be
usable, since almust everything, in for example "Microsoft.VSDesigner.dll",
are all Private classes, as showned by the "ildasm.exe".
Since much of this work is already done, I'm wondering what to do! It looks
like I have to bite the dust, or, is there a way that I can access and use
some of the the tools, for instance, Query builder in the Database Tools in
VS, or perhaps some other code, that would assist me to accomplishes the goal.

I'm a little pussled about the fact that MS is not promoting the IDE (for a
developer like me) by enabling classes to be re-used for this purpose. Even
if my database vendor IS not MS, it still would make MS sell more copies of
VS, if one simply could re-use such components, improving the exeprince of
using VS, but hey, this is my point of view! Perhaps the whole idea about
using the "Visual" tools are not enforced when it comes to creating database
driven applications, instead type it in, so you learn what you are doing,
making things like RAD harder!

Any suggestions are welcome!
/Thanks
