Selecting 'fields' from a DataSet/DataView ?
I'm designing a DataGridView programatically, and don't want to use an OleDb DataReader object to create a DataSet ( as I can't add/edit/delete ) However, using a DataView, I can't work out, even referencing Ch. 16 & Ch 17 of Beginning V.B. 2008, how to reference the value of a given cell in the memory. The book explains well, how to bind this DataView to controls, but not how to read values from the underlying view, without outputting it to the G.U.I. Can this be done ? ( I'd like to retrieve a particular column value using the CurrencyManager as a navigator through the records, to place in a further S.Q.L. Select statement as a variable parameter. ) Many thanks.
