Synopsis

ADO.NET is Microsoft's latest data access technology, and, as an integral component of the .NET framework, is far more than simply an upgrade of an existing technology. ADO.NET is a large set of .NET classes that enable us to interact with data sources, manipulate data, and communicate with other applications and Web Services in entirely new ways.

This book provides a wealth of information about the ADO.NET. We describe the features and how to use them, as well as providing advice and explanation that will enable you to use ADO.NET effectively. The code examples are concise, and demonstrate how to use a specific techniques rather than how to build entire applications.

This book covers:

  • An overview of ADO.NET, including differences to ADO and its new class structure
  • How to access and query databases using ADO.NET
  • The DataSet, DataReader and DataAdapter objects
  • How to implement transactions in ADO.NET
  • XML support
  • Working with database permissions
  • Incorporating classic ADO components in .NET applications
  • Real-world programming tasks using the SQL Client, OLEDB and ODBC providers
  • Extensive reference sections
