A sample to help in other samples related DataSource

  • Artículo

There are quite a few times, when I get an issue related with a specific DataControl and I want to bind it to a datasource. All geared up and with full enthusiasm, I start dealing with the issue... and DARN... I find that I did something awfully bad with my SQL Server during my last case!! So now, instead of fixing my core issue, I end up fixing my SQL Server. Since we don't really like digressing from the main issue I am posting this entry on my blog so that I could keep it handy and instead of fixing the SQL server, I can concentrate on fixing the root cause of the issue. By the way, SQL server rocks... more often than not, it is my bad that I end up doing something silly against it Happy

I know this might not be helpful to most of you at all since this code doesn't do much by itself. I have certain samples to do, and may be in future, this post will help me and some of my folks here while troubleshooting!

Until next time Wave
